The Domain of a relation is D:{4, 5, 6}, and the range of the same relation is R: {0, 1, 2, 3}. Is this a function? Explain why or why not.

No. Because if there's 4 elements in the range, there must be 4 elements in the domain. This means either 4, 5, or 6 repeat, which means the relation is not a function.
