Answer:
The statement 'V(x) is a function'' is False.
Explanation:
Let us make the table from the given mapping
x y
0 0
5 2
5 1
10 2
15 3
We know that a function is a relation where each input or x-value of the X set has a unique y-value or output of the Y set.
If we observe the table, it is clear that x = 5 is repeated twice. It means the input x = 5 is duplicated.
In other words, we can not have duplicated inputs as there should be only 1 output for each input.
Therefore, V(x) is not a function.
Hence, the statement 'V(x) is a function'' is False.
