The video tutorial explains the concept of functions, using various methods such as tables, coordinates, and mapping to identify whether a relation is a function. It introduces the vertical line test as a graphical method to determine functions. The tutorial emphasizes that a function is a relation where each input has a unique output, using examples to illustrate when a relation is not a function due to repeated x-values with different y-values.

What is a function in mathematical terms?

• A relation where each input has multiple outputs

• A relation where each output has multiple inputs

• A relation where inputs and outputs are the same

• A relation where each input has a single output

Why is a vending machine used as an analogy for a function?

• Because it has many buttons

• Because each button press results in one specific item

• Because it sometimes doesn't work

• Because it can dispense multiple items at once

In a table, why is the relation '1 to 2' and '1 to 5' not a function?

• Because the x-values are the same

• Because the x-value repeats with different y-values

• Because the y-values are the same

• Because the y-values are different

Which of the following is a function based on coordinates?

• (3, 6), (5, 8), (7, 10), (9, 12), (11, 10)

• (3, 2), (3, 3), (5, 8), (7, 10), (9, 12)

• (3, 6), (5, 8), (7, 10), (9, 12), (11, 14)

• (3, 6), (5, 8), (7, 10), (9, 12), (11, 12)

Why is the mapping '9 to -3' and '9 to 3' not a function?

• Because the y-values are the same

• Because the x-values are the same

• Because the x-value repeats with different y-values

• Because the y-values are different

In a mapping, is it acceptable for y-values to repeat?

• Yes, as long as each x-value has a unique y-value

• Yes, as long as x-values do not repeat

• No, x-values should not repeat

• No, y-values should not repeat

What is the vertical line test used for?

• To determine if a graph is a function

• To determine if a mapping is a function

• To determine if a table is a function

• To determine if coordinates are a function

How does the vertical line test work?

• By drawing multiple lines across the graph

• By drawing a diagonal line across the graph

• By drawing a vertical line across the graph

• By drawing a horizontal line across the graph

What does it mean if a vertical line touches a graph more than once?

• The graph has multiple outputs

• The graph is not a function

• The graph has multiple inputs

• The graph is a function

What is the key point to remember about functions?

• If y repeats with the same x-value, it is not a function

• If x repeats with a different y-value, it is not a function

• If y repeats with a different x-value, it is not a function

• If x repeats with the same y-value, it is not a function
