One to one function

[mohabitar]

h(x,y)=x/(y+1)

I'm not understanding why this function is NOT one to one? How do I quickly see if this function is one to one? Im not getting the overall concept of this..

A function is "one to one" if and only if different values of the arguments give different values of the function.
A function of two variables, f(x, y) is "one to one" if and only if f(x, y)= f(x', y') implies that x'= x and y'= y. That is not the case here.

h(2, 1)= \frac{2}{2}= 1
h(5}{4}= \frac{5}{5}= 1

In fact, any point on the line x= c(x+ y) gives h(x, y)= c.
