LESSON1
REPRESENTATIONS OF FUNCTIONS AND RELATIONS
Lesson Proper
Definition
A relation is a rule that relates values from a set of values (called the domain) to
a second set of values (called the range).
A relation is a set of ordered pairs (𝑥, 𝑦).
A function is a relation where each element in the domain is related to only one
value in the range by some rule.
A function is a set of ordered pairs (𝑥, 𝑦) such that no two ordered pairs have
the same x-value but different y-values. Using functional notation, we can write
(𝑥) = 𝑦, read as “𝑓 𝑜𝑓 𝑥 𝑖𝑠 𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑙 𝑡𝑜 𝑦.” In particular, if (1, 2) is an ordered pair
associated with the function f, then we say that (2) = 1.
Relations can be represented by using ordered pairs, graph, table of values, mapping
diagram and rule or equations. Determine which of the following represents functions.

1.Ordered Pairs
Example 1. Which of the following relations are functions?
𝑓 = (1, 3), (4, 1), (2, 0), (7,2)
𝑔 = (3, 2), (4,4), (3, 3), (8, 9)
ℎ = (1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 4), (4, 5)
Solution.
The relations 𝑓 and ℎ are functions because no two ordered pairs have the same
x-value but different y-values. Meanwhile, 𝑔 is not a function because (3,2) and (3, 3)
are ordered pairs with the same x-value but different y values.
2. Table of values
Example 2
A.
x -3 -2 -1 0 1 3 4
y 10 5 2 1 2 5 6
Answer: Function. This is a many-to- one correspondence.
B
x 1 1 1 2 4
y 1 2 3 4 5
Answer: mere relation. This is a one- to- many correspondence. Looking at the
table, there is duplication in the domain. The element “1” in x is matched to three
elements in y.

3. Mapping Diagrams Example
3
The Vertical Line Test
- graph represents a function if and only if each vertical line intersects the graph at most
once.
4
Activity1.
Determine whether each of the following relations indicates a function or not.
1. {(0,-1),(1,0),(4,2),(6,4),(15,8)
2. {(1,0),(-1,3),(1,4),(2,3)}
3.
x -4 -2 0 2 4
y 4 0 4 16 36

Activity2.
Show your solutions.Then identify the function or not.
1. y2=x
y=2,1,0,-1,-2
2.y=3x2+2
X=2,1,0,-1,-2
Activity3
Make an example of ( 1) function and (1 relation ) for ordered pairs,table of
values,mapping of diagram and vertical line .
