Well, do you know what a function is?

OpenStudy (george.g101):

Relation between inputs?

A function is where one input has EXACTLY one output.

ur answer is D. A function cannot have repeating x terms....it can have repeating y terms, just not the x's. 2x + y = 5...solve for y y = -2x + 5 y is the same as f(x)...so f(x) = -2x + 5...this is a function
