Answer: A. A relation that is a function.

Explanation:

A relation is said to be a function if each input value is associated with one unique output value.

Here, Number of miles run by car is directly proportional to the quantity of gasoline.

Independent variable - quantity of gasoline.

Dependent variable - Number of miles

On assuming the condition of car as good, the number of miles a car can run highly depends on the gallons of gasoline in the tank .

As quantity of gasoline increases number of miles driven would also increases.

i.e. Number of miles driven is a function with respect to quantity of gasoline.

Hence, the given line best describe as : A relation that is afunction.
