The tables below show the values of y corresponding to different values of x: Table A x 3 2 1 y 1 0 0 Table B x 3 5 4 y −2 1 1 Which statement is true for the tables? Both Table A and Table B represent functions. Both Table A and Table B do not represent functions. Table A does not represent a function, but Table B represents a function. Table A represents a function, but Table B does not represent a function.

OpenStudy (danjs):

for each to be a function, for each input value of X, there can only be one output value for Y

OpenStudy (danjs):

you cant have two different Y values for the same X value...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so .. they arent functions

OpenStudy (danjs):

yep

OpenStudy (danjs):

if you graph them, or have a graph, Scan the thing with a vertical line, if it crosses more than one point at the same time , it is not a function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so would it be the second answer

OpenStudy (danjs):

meaning , it has 2 or more y values for the given x

OpenStudy (danjs):

They are both function, there arent any repeated X values for either
