Answer:
No, because one x-value corresponds to two different y-values ⇒ D
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation of x and y can be a function if every x has only one value of y (x not repeated)
Examples:
- The relation {(3, 5), (-4, 6), (0, 5)} is a function because every x has only one value of y
- The relation {(3, 5), (-4, 6), (3, -5)} is not a function because x = 3 has two values of y 5 and -5
Let us check the given table
∵ At x = 2, y = 1
∵ At x = 3, y = 4
∵ At x = 4, y = 4
∵ At x = 5, y = 2
∵ At x = 5, y = 5
∵ x = 5 has two values of y 2 and 5
→ That means x is repeated
∴ Not every x has only one value of y
∴ The table does not represent a function
∴ The right answer is D
