Thank you We sneak in and here's your shmoop du

00:05

jour brought to you by relations it's about time you're

00:08

stingy and betsy and uncle jerry got you something graph

00:11

below shows a relation but not a function There are

00:14

two cases in which one point can be eliminated from

00:16

the graph and turn the relation into a function Click

00:19

on both of these points right sweet's question asking we're

00:23

told that we're looking at a relation rather than a

00:26

function Why it sure looks like a function of first

00:31

glance when introduced itself and said yo i'm a function

00:34

So what cause do we have to believe It's life

00:38

Remember the function machine for something to be a function

00:41

You can only have one output so everyone would look

00:44

at the graph We noticed that two of the points

00:47

have the exact same vertical coordinates Negative three to a

00:50

negative three Five right chair and vertical coordinates are outputs

00:54

so when two points fail the vertical line test we

00:57

don't have ourselves a function Unfortunately fortunately we now know

01:01

which two points we're looking for nick's either one of

01:03

them and we'd have to function well in the meantime

01:06

We'll just have to settle for this relation No Uh
