Answer:

Top left: not a function

Top right: not a function

Bottom left: function

Bottom right: not a function

Explanation:

A function is a relationship where each x value has it's own y value ( note that domain = x values and range = y values)

For the one on the top left.

S and n have more than one y value.

Because s and n have more than one y value the relation is not a function

For the one of the top right.

There x value "c" has multiple y values therefore the relation is not a function

For the one on the bottom left

Each x value has it's own y value therefore it is a function ( note that the y values can repeat. It's only the x values that can't repeat. )

For the one on the bottom right

The x value "-5" has multiple y values therefore the relation is not a function
