A function is a relation that assigns to each input exactly one output — i.e., no input has two different outputs.

The table is a function because each input (each day of the week) is paired with exactly one output (a single number of children). Even though some days share the same number (for example Monday, Tuesday and Thursday all show 4), no day is given more than one value, so the relation is a function.
