Does the set of ordered pairs {(2, 100), (13, 13), (14, 5), (60, 4), (100, 1)} define a function?

Yes, it does, since all x-coordinate values are different.

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a set of data points where the x values never repeat. In this one, all of the x values are different, so it is a function.

Hope this helps!

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:

for future students the answer is b
