Answer:

yes

Explanation:

You want to know if the relation shown is a function.

Function

A set of ordered pairs (x, y) represents a function if there are no repeated x-values. Here, there are 4 unique x-values for the 4 ordered pairs (none are repeated), so this relation is a function.

__

Additional comment

Yes, it's that simple.

Look down the x-list. If you see any repeats, it is not a function. The same is true for ordered pairs (x, y). If there are any repeated first numbers, it is not a function.
