true or false
Do you know the definition of a function?
A function is a special relationship where each input has a single output.
Yes. a parabola is a function because when you draw a vertical line on it, it wouldn't pass through 2 points.
thanks
is this a function
Try doing the vertical line test? Would this be considered a function? does it pass the test?
false. the vertical line test disproves that statement. If an equation is a function, a vertical line should be able to pass through any x value and only intersect the graph of the function once. This is not true for polar functions.
