Question 527499: In your own words, define the word “function.”
Give your own example of a function using a set of at least 4 ordered pairs. The domain will be any four integers between 0 and +10. The range will be any four integers between -12 and 5. Your example should not be the same as those of other students or the textbook. There are thousands of possible examples.
Explain why your example models a function. This is extremely important for your learning.

Answer by richard1234(7193)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A function is a relation that maps a set of inputs, or the domain, to the set of outputs, or the range. Note that for a function, one input cannot map to more than one output, but one output may be mapped to more than one input.
I'll have you try to construct a function and "non-function" that satisfies the conditions. The sentence you typed "This is extremely important for your learning" is not necessary because tutors on algebra.com already know what functions are. Just specify some inputs and outputs (they can be random -- it does not have to be linear, quadratic, etc.), and make sure that you follow the guidelines on whether a relation is a function.
