Question

Choose whether the representation Is or is not a function for the problem and select the reasoning for the answer.

Answer 1

For a graph to be a function, the following condition must be met:

• There must only bye one value of y for a given value of x.

In this case For the representation we have, we can see that for all of the values of x we get two values for y:

Which does not meet the condition indicated to be a function.

We can also make the vertical test, which is to draw a vertical line, and of it touches the graph more than 1 time, the representation is not a function:

It does not passes the vertical line test

So the answer is:

-Not a function

-The graph does not pass the vertical line test
