I do not even know how to BEGIN this problem, and can find no similar problems in the book to work for practice. If you could just point me in the right direction, I would be most grateful! Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Determine whether 3xy^2+4y^2 = 4x^2-11x defines y as a function of x.
--------------------
Because of the x^2 and the y^2 and the xy factors
the equation is not a function.
