the first choice because the x variable is not repeating.

Answer: The answer would be the first choice.

Explanation:

Remember that a function is where every INPUT has exactly ONE OUTPUT. That means for the coordinates (x, y), no pair could have an x value repeat. So, the first ordered row pair does not have any repeating x values, so it's the first answer.
