y as the function of x :

The y value of a point where a vertical line intersects a graph represents an output for that input x value. If we can draw any vertical line that intersects a graph more than once, then the graph does not define a function because that x value has more than one output.

In this graph :

for every value of x there is uniquew value of y! i.e

for x = 1, y = 1 and for x = -1 then y = 1

thus they statisfy the Many one relation

Hence the graph is the function of x.

B) In the given graph :

There are two lines which intersect at some point

So, they are the pair of linear equation

the given graph is not the function of x

C) The given graph :

these two pair parallel lines are parallel to x axis so, they have constant y value

thus, they are not the function of x

D) The given graph :

In this graphfor x = 1 y = 1 and -1

So, they show many to many relation hence it is not a function

Thus, the graph is not the function of x.
