Answer:

last option is correct.

Explanation:

A relation is a function if each x value has a unique y value.

We'll use this concept to check whether the relation is a function or not.

For the first relation,

the x value 2 has two different values -9 and 8 . Hence, it is not a function.

For the second relation,

the x values -8 and 1 has different y values . Hence, it is not a function.

For the third relation

The x value -5 has different y values. Hence, it is not a function.

For the fourth relation

All the x values have unique y values. Hence, from the definition it is a function.

Therefore, last option is correct.
