Answer: B. Yes, because every x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value.

Explanation:

  • A relation said to be function if for each input values there exist a unique output value.

Generally we denote input values as 'x' and output values as 'y'.

In the given situation, there is only one unique output value (Monthly Pay) for each input value (Hours of training).

Hence, this table is representing a function because every x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value.
