A set of ordered pairs is not a function when there is more than one y value for an x coordinate. So the second choice is the answer because the last two points (1, 3.3), and (1, 4.5) gives the x coordinate 1 two y coordinates.

OpenStudy (ageta):

It's a function if every x is "matched" to ONLY ONE y. If the same value of x is matched with two different y's, then it isn't a function.
