Answer:
No because it contains points (3,4) and (3,-4). You cannot have a x assigned to more than one y-value if you want it to be a function.
Step-by-step explanation:
A function has one output per input.
If we are trying to determine if the given is a function of x, then x is the input.
However I can get two outputs from plugging in x=3.
Subtract 9 on both sides:
Take the square root of both sides:
.
So input x=3 yields y=4 and y=-4.
Since this input has more than one output then the given is not a function of x.
----Also!
If you graph the equation, it is a circle with radius 5 and center (0,0). So I could I plug in any number for x between -5 and 5 excluding -5 and 5 which would yield only one output each. Since plugging in either one gives:
Subtract 25 on both sides:
Simplify:
There is only one value y such that when you square it gives you 0. That is 0.
x=5 only gives y=0 and x=-5 only gives y=0.
There is no circle, unless it is a circle with radius 0 which means it really wouldn't be a circle, that is a function.

Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to make the division of the fractions and
. To do this, you can flip the fraction
over and multiply the numerators and the denominators of the fractions. Then:
Reduce the fraction :
Now you can make the subtraction: in this case the Least Common Denominator (LCD) will be the multiplication of the denominators. Divide each denominator by the LCD and multiply this quotient by the corresponding numerator and then subtract the products. Therefore you get:
