Determine whether each relation is a function calculator

More than just an online function properties finder

Wolfram|Alpha is a great tool for finding the domain and range of a function. It also shows plots of the function and illustrates the domain and range on a number line to enhance your mathematical intuition.

How Do You Figure Out If a Relation is a Function?

Note:

How do you figure out if a relation is a function? You could set up the relation as a table of ordered pairs. Then, test to see if each element in the domain is matched with exactly one element in the range. If so, you have a function! Watch this tutorial to see how you can determine if a relation is a function.

    What is an Ordered Pair?

    Ordered pairs are a fundamental part of graphing. Ordered pairs make up functions on a graph, and very often, you need to plot ordered pairs in order to see what the graph of a function looks like. This tutorial will introduce you to ordered pairs!
