@AriPotta

OpenStudy (danjs):

To be a function, each x value must map to only 1 y value

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

sa B

OpenStudy (danjs):

B has the two points (9,1) and (9,2) the x value of 9 maps to 2 different numbers , 1 and 2

OpenStudy (danjs):

so that is not a function

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

so which one is it

OpenStudy (danjs):

Which one has 4 different x values?

OpenStudy (danjs):

(x,y), (x1,y1) , (x2,y2) , (x3,y3) none of those x values can be the same number.

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

so its A @DanJS

OpenStudy (danjs):

Following the rule i stated above, a) has points (-2 , 3) and (-2 , 5)

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

i dont now

OpenStudy (danjs):

2 of the x values are the same

OpenStudy (danjs):

a point is (x , y) if any of the numbers in the x place is pictured more than once in any of the answers, then it is NOT a function.

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

ohh its D

OpenStudy (danjs):

Each answer has 4 points (x , y) find the one that doesnt have duplicate values in the x spot

OpenStudy (danjs):

yes!
