Agebra 2 ?
Hello I'm new here ;) . I'm having a little trouble with this question: Is a function always a relation? Is relation always a function? :confused: Please explain your reasoning.:D

From what I remember a function is always a relation but a relation is not always a function.
Go to the Math source:
function
Functions versus Relations
Function (mathematics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
)

A Vertical line Test can easily Tell you if it is a function or not. :)

Great method assuming that the relation can be graphed easily.
