Answers:- Yes it's a function
- Yes it's a function
- No, it's not a function
Explanation:- We have a function since none of the x coordinates repeat themselves. Each x input leads to exactly one output.
- Similar reasoning as problem 1.
- The input x = 133 repeats itself. The input x = 133 leads to more than one output (y = -83 and y = -138). This is why we don't have a function. You can toss out or ignore the duplicate copy of (-9, -141)
As a visual alternative, you can use the vertical line test to see if you have a function or not.
