Answer \( \{(-6,9),(-7,1),(-4,-2),(-4,5)\} \) Subm \( \{(-6,-8),(-9,8),(6,9),(5,8)\} \) \( \{(3,-8),(-4,0),(-9,-1),(8,0)\} \) \( \{(6,4),(-1,-9),(-9,1),(-2,-1)\} \) Sign out

In the realm of mathematics, a function is like a beautifully choreographed dance where each input has just one unique partner as the output. The set of ordered pairs you've identified, \( \{(-4,-2),(-4,5)\} \), throws a wrench in the routine because the same input, -4, is paired with two different outputs. This means it doesn't qualify as a function, putting it in the hot seat! In real-world scenarios, think of a function as a vending machine. You press one button (the input), and the machine delivers one snack (the output). If you press the same button multiple times and it dispenses different snacks each time, you might want to get a refund! Thus, it’s essential to ensure that every input corresponds to only one output to maintain the reliability of your mathematical vending machine!
