It's the third one.

The second one is a parabola so that is not the answer. Hope I helped :)

None of the drawings is not a function.

The first drawing is the graph of the function Y = | X | - 5 .

The second drawing is the graph of the function Y = -X² + 6 .

The third drawing is the graph of the function

Y = (1/3) √ (21+7x) (21-7x) .

The fourth drawing is the graph of the function Y = (2.5 ?) X - 6 .
___________________________________

They may be looking for #3 as the non-function, because it's
a "multi-valued" function, and it has a very limited domain.

... For each X-value, the function has two different y-values.

... 'X' is not allowed to ever be less than -3 or more than +3 .

All of this makes many people uncomfortable.
