Answer:

Yes, because each x-value corresponds to one y value.

Explanation:

If you look at the table, you notice that there is one output (y) for every input (x). This means that it is a function. It would NOT be a function if you had two outputs for an input. For example, there are two x values that are 6. For one coordinate pair, the table says (6,9) and (6,8). Since there are two values for the same input- it wouldn't be a function. In this case, there is an input of 4 and 5 with the same output. That is okay! Even though they have the same y value, those inputs still only have ONE output.
