Workplace Data Mapping and Mathematical Relations

In business analytics and operations, data is often organized by pairing one business metric with another (for example, pairing an employee's ID number with the number of hours they worked). In mathematics, such structured pairing is called a relation.

  1. In your own words, define what a mathematical relation is.
  2. Define the terms domain and range as they apply to a relation.
  3. An operations coordinator at a logistics center compiles a list pairing each Delivery Driver's ID number with the number of packages they delivered on a given shift: {(101, 145), (102, 138), (103, 152)} Identify the domain and range of this specific relation.
