Algebra.Com's Answer #221273 by nyc_function(2741) You can put this solution on YOUR website! A function f from A to B is called one-to-one (or 1-1) if whenever \n" ); document.write( "f (a) = f (b) then a = b. No element of B is the image of more than one element in A.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In other words, a one-to-one function CANNOT have repeated values for y.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Looking at your choices, the only one that does not repeat values for y is choice 2 or (1,3)(2,4)(4,1)(0,2).\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Do you see that the values for y are 3, 4, 1 and 2? None of them repeat and so this is why it is one-to-one.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
