Answer:

C

Explanation:

Here, we want to select the correct statement that best defines if the given points are a function

We have this answer as;

The ordered pairs do not represent a function because one input value has two different output values

What they are trying to say here is that for us to have a function, no x-value should have 2 y-values although a y-value can have 2 x-values

But according to the points given, a certain x-value has 2 y-values which does not make the relation correct as a function
