Does the oval graph represent a function?

Does the oval graph represent a function? Why or why not?
A. No. There are range values assigned to multiple distinct domain values.
B. Yes. There are range values assigned to multiple distinct domain values.
C. Yes. There are domain values assigned to multiple distinct range values.
D. No. There are domain values assigned to multiple distinct range values.

Answer

Answer: D. No. There are domain values assigned to multiple distinct range values.

Explanation: A function must have only one output (range value) for each input (domain value). The vertical line test can be used to determine if a graph represents a function. If a vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point, then the graph does not represent a function. In the case of the oval graph, a vertical line would intersect the graph at two points, indicating that there are domain values with multiple range values, so it is not a function.
