<u>Explanation</u></h3>
- How to see if a shown graph is function or not?
If we want to check that a graph is function or not, we have a way to check by doing these steps.
- Draw a vertical line, make sure that a line has to pass through or intercept a graph.
- See if a line intercepts a graph more than once.
If a line intercepts a graph only one point, a graph is indeed a function. Otherwise, not a function but a relation instead. That includes if a line intercepts more than a point which doesn't make a graph a function.
From the graph, if we follow these steps, we will see that a line will only pass or intercept the graph only one point. Hence, the graph is indeed a function. The following graph that is shown is called "Parabola" for a < 0.

<u>Answer</u></h3>
The graph is a function.
(y x .12) x .3 = the total cost
12 × 12 would equal to 144
Hope this helped! :D
3a-2 is equivalent to (3a)-2
Hope my answer helped:)
