Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4} and B = {a, b, c}. State, which of the given are relations from A to B.

Solution
For a set of ordered pairs to be a relation from A to B, then the
x-coordinates of the ordered pairs should be from A and the y-coordinates
should be from B. Now, in the given set of ordered pairs, the x-coordinates are not from the set A. Hence, the given set of ordered
pairs are not a relation from A to B.
