For this case we have that a function is defined as the relationship that exists between two sets. In said relation, each element of the starting set (represented by the variable "x"), corresponds to a single element of the arrival set (represented by the variable "y").

Thus, we observe in the table that each value of the starting set corresponds to a single element of the arrival set. Then we have a function.

Answer:

Choice B is correct.

Explanation:

We have given a table.

We have to find that is this table represent a function or not?

let, House of training = x , Monthly pay = y

We see from the table that each value of x has exactly one value of y.

A function is a rule that assigns each value of x a unique value of y.

So, this table represent a function.

In the table, every value of x has single value of y.

Choice B is correct. Every x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value.
