1. A relation contains the ordered pairs
(3,8),(6,10),(9,12),and (a,b).
For which values of a and b is the relation a function?
A.a=3 and b=14->not this one a=3 , same as in ordered pair (3,8)
B.a=6 and b=12->not this one a=6 , same as in ordered pair (6,10)
C. a=9 and b=9->not this one a=9 , same as in ordered pair (9,12)
D. a=11 and b=8->for these values of a and b the relation is a function
(3,8),(6,10),(9,12),(11,8)
answer is: D. a=11 and b=8
