PLZ HELP ME I"LL DO ANYTHING Which set of ordered pairs represents a function?
{(−8,1),(5,−7),(−6,9),(−6,−9)}
{(-2, -3), (2, 1), (2, 6), (4, 9)}
{(-8, 4), (6, 4), (9, 1), (7, -6)}
{(-4, 5), (0, 0), (2, -8), (2, 0)}

First step is to get rid of the square root. remember that a square root is the same as raising to the (1/2) power. see below: multiply exponents per exponent rules to get: remember you subtract exponents from the denominator and add exponents in the numerator so: simplify further: so a is the correct choice. if you don't understand this google exponent rules and it will you understand. look at the image results.
