Final answer:

D. The domain is {-5, -2, 4, 6}, and the relation is not a function.

The relation is not a function because one x-value is paired with multiple y-values.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relation consists of pairs of values in the form (x, y). The domain of the relation is the set of all x-values, while the range is the set of all y-values.

To determine if the relation is a function, we need to check if each x-value is paired with a unique y-value. If there are any x-values that are paired with more than one y-value, then the relation is not a function.

In this case, we can see that the x-value -2 is paired with both y-values -1 and 1, so the relation is not a function.

Therefore, the correct answer isD. The domain is {-5, -2, 4, 6}, and the relation is not a function.
