Graph y=x^2+1 is it a function

Is it a function? How did you determine whether or not it was a function?

Determine the range and domain

Hello,

The graph of y = x² + 1 most certainly is a function.
It is a function because for every value of x, there is only one value of y.

The domain of y = x² + 1 is the set of all real numbers and the range is y ≥ 1.
