Answer:

No, it is not

Explanation:

Here, we want to check if what we have is a function

For a relation to be a function, the mapping must be one to one or many to one

This mean, for every x there must be one y or for every y, there must can be multiple x

But never is it that there are many y for a single x

Looking at the value 0

on the domain, we can see -2 and 1 as the values

Thus, this is not a function
