Question

What is the largest value of x that would make the following list of a points not a function.

{(___, 12), ( 9, 17), ( 10, 20))

Answer 1

To determine if the given set of points is a function, we need to check if there are any repeating x-values. If there are repeating x-values, then the set of points is not a function.

So, looking at the given list of points:

{(___, 12), ( 9, 17), ( 10, 20)}

We see that all the x-values are unique. If we add another point to the set with x as the same value as the previous points, it would not be a function.

Thus, the largest value of x that would make the set of points not a function is 10.
