option 4 can be a relation but not a function

For a relation to be a function, there must be two mapping kinds

one to one or many to one

What this mean is that every x value will have a single y-value or many x values to one y value

No single x value will have a two y values

Thus, looking at the options, the circle can be a relation but it is not a function

This is because an x-value will have y-value below and above it
