Step-by-step explanation


\begin{gathered} \text{Let} \\ x\text{ y} \\ (-3,0) \\ (0,-4) \\ (2,0) \\ (2,5) \end{gathered}

A function is a relation for which each value from the set the first components of the ordered pairs is associated with exactly one value from the set of second components of the ordered pair, let's check x=2

we have


(2,0)\text{ and (2,5)}

2 is associated with two values from the set of second components(0 and 5), then

this is not a funcion of x

I hope this helps you
