Show that f is a function and g is not a function.

Answer:

The relation is defined as

It is observed that for

Also, at

i.e., at

Therefore, for , the images of are unique.

Thus, the given relation is a function.

The relation g is defined as

It can be observed that for and also

Hence, element of the domain of the relation corresponds to two different images i.e., 4 and 6.

Hence, this relation is not a function.
