In mathematics, a function is a relation between a set of inputs (the domain) and a set of possible outputs (the codomain), where each input is related to exactly one output. In other words, a function is a rule that assigns each input a unique output.
The table provided shows a function because each day of the week is associated with a specific number of children in the car. Each input (day of the week) has a unique output (number of children in the car), and no day is associated with more than one number of children. This meets the criteria for a function, as each input has exactly one output.
Use the table to answer the question. BE RIGHT!!!
Day of the Week Number of Children in the Car
Sunday 2
Monday 4
Tuesday 4
Wednesday 3
Thursday 4
Friday 3
Saturday 0
