Step by Step Solution

Step 1. Given Information.

A relation: 1,2,1,5,2,4,3,3,4,1

Step 2. Calculation.

Upon graphing our given relation, we will get our required graph as shown below:

The mapping diagram of our given relation would look like:

We know that a relationship will be also a function, when each input in the domain has exactly one specific corresponding output.

Upon looking at our given ordered pairs, we can see that each x-value corresponds to a specific y-value except 1. We can see that 1 corresponds to 2 and 5.

Step 3. Conclusion.

The given relation is not a function.
