This week, your task is to create a relation involving two variables from your daily life, and then discuss whether or not your relation is a function. In particular, complete the following steps:
- Fill in the table with what you are typically doing during each of the following times.
Time (T) | Activity (A) |
4 AM | |
8 AM | |
12 PM | |
4 PM | |
8 PM | |
12 AM |
- Represent your relation (T, A) in an alternative manner other than the table created in part (a) (i.e. as ordered pairs or with a mapping diagram).
- Determine whether or not your relation is a function. Why or why not?
- In your responses to peers, comment on whether or not you think their relations are also functions.
Be sure to post an initial, substantive response by Thursday at 11:59 p.m. MST, and respond to two or more peers with substantive responses by Sunday at 11:59 p.m. MST. A substantive initial post answers the question presented completely and/or asks a thoughtful question pertaining to the topic. Substantive peer responses ask a thoughtful question pertaining to the topic and/or answers a question (in detail) posted by another student or the instructor.
