Answer:

Points A and F can be included while keeping the graph a function

Explanation:

Graph of a function cannot have two different y-values for a given x-value. This means that at any given point on x-axis only one y value must be available.

So from the given points only those points can be selected, where the function is not already having any y-value.

Point A can be included because at x = - 9, no other y value is defined. So this will keep the given graph as a function.

Point B cannot be added, at at x=-6, the function already has a value which is -4. Adding point B, will result in two values at x = -6 which will be against the definition of function. So point B cannot be added.

Similarly, points C, D and E cannot be added either due to the same reason.

Point F can be added as the graph does not has any value at x = 7. So it will have a unique value here.
