Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

A function is a set of relations without repetitive domains.

From the given relation, there are no repetitive domains. Thus our relation here is a function.

Example of Function

{(1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5)}

Example of Non-Function

{(1,1), (1,2), (2,3), (3,4), (4,5)}

From this relation, there are two repetitive domains which are 1's. Thus not making the relation a function.
