The mapping shows a relationship between input and output values.

A mapping diagram shows a relation, using arrows, between input and output for the following ordered pairs: (negative 5, 0), (2, negative 3), (negative 1, negative 3), (4, negative 2), (4, 2), (6, negative 1).

Which ordered pair could be removed to make this relation a function?

(-5, 0)

(-1, - 3)

(4, - 2)

(6, - 1)

(4, - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A function has associated only one output for each input. In the ordered pairs, we can see that for the input 4 there are two associated outputs, which are - 2 and 2. Then, to make the relation a function, one of them must be removed.
