Only the first table is a function.

Reason: In the first table the x-values (-3, 0, -2, 8) are all distinct, so each input has exactly one output. In the other tables some x-values repeat with different y-values (e.g. x = -5 in table 2, x = -2 in table 3, x = -4 in table 4), so they are not functions.
