Determine whether the set of ordered pairs {(3,8) ,(2,8) ,(3,17) }\{ ( 3,8 ) , ( 2,8 ) , ( 3,17 ) \}{(3,8) ,(2,8) ,(3,17) } represents a function from A to B , where A={1,2,3}A = \{ 1,2,3 \}A={1,2,3} and B={8,10,15,17}B = \{ 8,10,15,17 \}B={8,10,15,17} .

A) not a function from A to B
B) a function from A to B

Ordered Pairs

Pairs of numbers used to represent points on a graph, with the first number indicating horizontal position and the second number vertical position.

Function

In mathematics, a relation between a set of inputs and a set of permissible outputs with the property that each input is related to exactly one output.

  • Distinguish between relations that represent functions and those that do not.

Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The set of ordered pairs is not a function from A to B because the input value 3 is associated with two different output values, 8 and 17. In a function, each input value can only be associated with one unique output value.
