Answer:

To determine if they are functions or not, each y value needs to have only one x value. There should never be 2 values with the same x.

The first one is a function.

The second one is not a function because there are two coordinates that have -1.

The third on is not a function because there are two of them that have 0.

The fourth one is a function because when listing the inputs and outputs, there are different x values for each y value.

Hope this helps ;)

Answer:

The first and last option.

Explanation:

This is true because in the first chart, different y values correspond to different x values. In the other chart and option, the same y value corresponded to multiple x values - when this happens, it is not a function. This is why the first option is a function. In the last option, you gave an equation to a parabola. When graphed, the parabola opens downwards. Only parabolas that open upwards or downwards are considered functions. Parabolas that open left or right are not considered parabolas. You can test whether or not a parabola is considered a function by conducting the "Vertical Line Test."
