Answer: A. No, because one x-value corresponds to two different y-values.

Explanation:

  • A function is a kind of special relationship where each input has only a single output.

We take input variable as 'x' and output variable as 'y'.

In the given table, it can be seen that one input value corresponds to two two different output values.

i.e. 8 is the input value corresponding to 5 and 8 both.

It contradicts the definition of the function.

Hence, the given table doesn't represent any function.
