In mathematics, a function is a relationship between a set of inputs (domain) and outputs (range) in which each input corresponds to exactly one output.
The table shows a function because each day of the week (input) is associated with a unique number of children in the car (output). No day has more than one value for the number of children, satisfying the definition of a function.
