A one to one function is a function in which every element in the range of the function corresponds with one and only one element in the domain.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Example of a \"one-to-one\" function:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " { (0,1) , (5,2), (6,4) }
\n" ); document.write( " Domain: 0, 5, 6
\n" ); document.write( " Range: 1,2, 4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Each element in the domain (0, 5, and 6) correspond with a unique element in the range. Therefore this function is a one-to-one function \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If a function is \"one-to-one\", then the function not only passes the vertical line test (the vertical line test is a way to determine whether or not a relation is a function), but it also passes the \"horizontal\" line test.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " The Horizontal Line Test :
\n" ); document.write( "If a horizontal line only intersects with the graph of a function once, then this function is \"one-to-one\". If a horizontal line intersects the graph of the function more than once, then this function is not \"one-to-one\". \r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "since a horizontal line only intersects with the graph of a function once, function is \"one-to-one\"\r
