The sequence is an geometric progression;
Nth=a₁r^(n-1)
a₁ is the first term=-1
r=ratio=a₂/a₁=6/-1=-6
Nth=-1(-6^(n-1)
NTh=an
a₁=-1(-6⁰)=-1
a₂=-1(-6¹)=6
a₃=-1(-6²)=-36
a₄=-1(-6³)=216
therefore this serie is rising at an increasing fast speed, it is an geometric progression.
To find if one is a function, you must see if the pattern is the same.
Domains (x) can not have two values
I forget what the y value is called, but there can be the same y- value for multiple x - values
A. is not a function, because its ordered pairs are all over the place, and the value 4 in the x - value has two values assigned - 0 and 3, which makes it invalid.
B. may be a linear function. Its ordered pairs aren't jumping all over the place.
Both the x and y go up one for one, so the function could be y = x + 3
C. isn't because the x - value 2 has two values. Again, that makes this invalid.
D. is invalid because there is two x - values for 2.
Therefore, the answer is B.

x=5
