Answer:

YES, it represents a function

Step-by-step explanation:

For a relation to be a function, each member of the domain (input) must be matched to only one element in the range (output).

According to ordered pairs, we can see that the domain values are all unique as shown;

As you can see from the diagram, each input only has a unique corresponding co-domain (range). This shows that the ordered pairs represents a FUNCTION.
