It is C because a function can only have 1 input for an output.

Answer:

Option: C is the correct answer.

C) It is not a function because each package number has two different prices.

Explanation:

Function--

Function is a mapping from a set A to set B such that each element of set A is mapped to a unique number.

i.e. every element has a single image.

Here a package number has two different rates or prices.

(Since let set A is package number and set B is a price of the package. )

As element of set A has more than one image.

Hence, it is not a function.
