Final answer:

Option A is not a function because it has repeated x-values.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a relation where each input value (x) corresponds to exactly one output value (y). In the given options, a relation is represented by a set of ordered pairs. To determine if it is a function, we need to check if any x-values are repeated.

In option A, the x-value 5 is repeated, so it is not a function.

Therefore, option A is NOT a function.
