Explanation:
If y has an exponent of 2, 4, 6, etc (basically any even number) then it leads to having inputs with multiple outputs.
Consider something like y^2 = x. If x = 100, then y = 10 or y = -10 are possible. A function can only have exactly one y output for any valid x input. Similar issues happen for things like y^4 = x and so on. So this is why A and C are not functions.
The other equations do not have y values with such exponents, so we can solve for y and have each x input lead to exactly one y output. Therefore, they are functions.

Answer:
The greatest number of the books that could have been borrowed during the week is 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's create an equation which represent this problem, where will rest the book borrow and add the book returned to the 40 initial amount of book on Monday, to get the 22 book in the shelf on Saturday morning
40 (book on the shelf on Monday) - x (book borrowed) + 0.5 * x (50 % of the book was returned before Saturday) = 22 (books in the shelf on Saturday morning)
40 - x + 0.5 * x = 22
40 - 0.5*x = 22
18 = 0.5 * x
18/0.5 = x
36 = x
The amount of borrowed books is 36
