Question 11 of 25

Does this table represent a function? Why or why not?
X
y
2
1
4
3

A. Yes, because all of the x-values correspond to one or more
y-values.
B. No, because one x-value corresponds to two different y-values.
C. Yes, because every x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value.

Answer 1

Answer: Let's put the chart into ordered pairs:

(x, y)

(2,1)

(3,4)

(3,3)

(4,2)

(5,5)

In bold, we see that there are two y-values at x=3. This means that this relation fails the vertical line test (two points on the same verticle line). This is not a function.

The answer options may be mis-written.

The answer is no, because one x value corresponds to more than one y-value.

Have a great day!
