Asha found that a vertical line intersects the graph of x = StartAbsoluteValue y EndAbsoluteValue at two points. What can Asha conclude about x = StartAbsoluteValue y EndAbsoluteValue?

It is a function of x but not a relation.
It is a relation but not a function of x.
It is both a function of x and a relation.
It is neither a function of x nor a relation.

Answer:

B) It is a relation but not a function of X

Step-by-step explanation:

What Asha did was the vertical line test. This is a test to see if something is a function or not. Since a function can only have one output per input, if the vertical line intersects twice, it is not a function. However it is still a relation. A relation doesn't have to fit the rule that one output only has one input.
