Answer:

NO

Explanation:

For a relation to be a function, every input (x-value) must have exactly one output (y-value) mapped to it or related to it.

This means, in a function, an input value cannot give you two different outputs.

Therefore, relation shown in the arrow diagram IS NOT A FUNCTION, because one of the inputs (x-value), which is 1.2, has two different outputs (y-value) that is mapped or related to it, which are 6 and 8.
