1) (0, 0), (0, 1), (2, 3), (3, 4)
2) (0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 3), (3, 3)
3) (1, 0), (2, 0), (3, 3), (3, 4)
4) (-1, 0), (1, 0), (3, 0), (3, 4)

1) is correct because there are no repeating y values

Final answer:

The set of ordered pairs that represents y as a function of x is option 2) (0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 3), (3, 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The set of ordered pairs that represents y as a function of x is option 2) (0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 3), (3, 3).

In this set, each x-value corresponds to a unique y-value, which is the criteria for a function. However, option 1) has (0, 0) listed twice, which violates the definition of a function. Also, options 3) and 4) have different x-values that correspond to the same y-value, which also violates the definition of a function.

Therefore, option 2) is the correct set of ordered pairs that represents y as a function of x.
