Question

URGENT

The rule for a relation is y = (x + 1)^2
The domain is {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3}.
Is the relation a function?

Answer 1

Yes, the given relation is a function.

Explanation:

Given the quadratic function, y = (x + 1)², and the domain of {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3}:

By definition, a function is a relation in which no two ordered pairs have the same first component (x-values) and different second components (y-values). Observing the given domain, there are no repeating input values.

Therefore, the correct answer is that the relation is a function.
