Question 1110794: Determine whether the following relation represents a function. If it is a function, state the domain and range. On all parts, choose the best answer.
All points (x,y) that satisfy the equation x=|y|
Does the given relation represent a function?
And What's domain and rang

x can only be the nonzero real numbers. That would be domain.

Not a function because y may be positive, negative, or zero, and other than zero for y, there will be two y values for each x value.

in this function, the way that it is written, the range is x and the domain is y.

you are solving for x, therefore x is the dependent variable and y is the independent variable.

the domain of this function is all real values of y.

the range of this function is all non-negative values of x.

if you graphed this function, it would look like this.
