i think the answer is The 1st table represents a function

Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Function is a relation where each input has a single output

- The notation of the function is f(x) = y , where x is the input of the

function and y is the out put of the function

- The domain of the function is x and the range of the function is y

* Lets find which table represent a function

# First table:

x y

-3 -1

0 0

-2 -1

- In the first table

∵ -3 has only -1

∵ 0 has only 0

∵ -2 has only -1

∵ 8 has only 1

∵ Every x has a single y

∴ The table represents a function

∴ The 1st table represents a function

- In the second table

x y

-5 -5

0 0

-5 5

6 -6

∵ x = -5 has y = -5 and y = 5

∴ One x has two values of y

∴ The table doesn't represent a function

- In the third table

x y

-4 8

-2 2

-2 4

0 2

∵ x = -2 has y = 2 and y = 4

∴ One x has two values of y

∴ The table doesn't represent a function

- In the fourth table

x y

-4 2

3 5

-4 0

∵ x = -4 has y = 2 and y = 0

∴ One x has two values of y

∴ The table doesn't represent a function
