One input has multiple corresponding outputs
What type of questions should NOT be asked based on the provided text?
Questions about examples of functions in general
In the context of the provided text, what could be a common misunderstanding about relations and functions?

Study Notes
Functions and Relations
- A function is a relation between a set of inputs (called the domain) and a set of possible outputs (called the range).
- An example of a function is a relation where every input corresponds to exactly one output.
- If a relation is not a function, it could be because it does not pass the vertical line test, meaning a vertical line can intersect the graph of the relation at more than one point.
- Questions that should NOT be asked based on the provided text are those that require a precise mathematical definition or technical details about functions, as the text does not provide those.
- A common misunderstanding about relations and functions could be that all relations are functions, which is not the case.
- Certain types of questions should NOT be asked based on the provided text because the text does not provide sufficient information to answer more specific or technical questions about functions.
Test your knowledge on functions and relations with questions about the definition of a function, identifying examples of functions, and reasons why a relation may not be a function.
