Answer:

C. No because two points with the same x-value have different y-values.

Explanation:

(view my screenshot attachment too please)

A function can't have same x-values that appear for multiple different y-values.

In the diagram, (10, 6) and (10, 9) indicate that it isn't a function.

This is because the same 10 appears twice (x-value) but with multiple different y-values (6 and 9).
