Answer:
Part A: yes it is a function because every input value (x) produces only one output value (y).
Note: It is still a function if different x values produce the same y value, in this case, x=1 and x=-1 produce the same y value 1, but it is NOT a function if y=1 and y=-1 have the same x value x=1.
Part B: when x=30: f(30)=17*30+50=560
if means that the cost of renting the truck for 30 hours is 560 dollars.

2 x 5 x 11 Is it I think. What do you think?
ANSWER
a relation only
EXPLANATION
The given graph shown in the attachment represents only a relation and not a function.
The reason is that, a vertical line drawn across this graph will intersect this graph at more than one point.
Since the graph fails to pass the vertical line test, the ordered pair represented by this graph represents a relation only.
5x = 20...where x = number of months
x = 20/5
x = 4...it would take Tom 4 months to save $20
