Answer:

Every input can have only one output. But an output can have multiple inputs. Basically an x coordinate can have the same y coordinate as another ordered pair but not the same x coordinate. This is why d) does not represent a function.

Explanation:

(4,-2)

(4,2)

4 is mentioned twice and every input( x value) can have only one output ( y-value)
