Given that x is an integer between -2 and 2, state the relation represented by the equation y=2-|x| by listing a set of ordered pairs. Then state whether the relation is a function
-----------
If x = -4, y = 2-4 = -2
If x = -3, y = 2-3 = -1
If x = -2, y = 2-2 = 0
If x = -1, y = 2-1 = 1
If x = 0, y = 2-0 = 2

Plot those points and connect them to get get:

Yes it is a function.
