Answer:
It is a function.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can test if a graph is a function if you draw a vertical line anywhere on the graph and you see it hits two points.
This is the table for the graph.
Remember these rules:
- Each x value, or input, has its unique y value, or output
- If you draw a vertical line anywhere on the graph, it should only go through one point
We can check these two rules for this graph:
- Does each x value have its own, unique y value? Yes
- If you draw a vertical line anywhere on the graph, does it only go through one point? Yes, there are no overlaps
Keep in mind that two different x-values can have the same y value.
Figure 1:
It has two x values with the same y-values.
Figure 2 and 3:
The vertical line goes through two points. So the same x-value has two different y-values.
