Answer 1

To determine if a relationship graphed is a function, we typically use the vertical line test. If any vertical line drawn on the graph intersects the line more than once, then the relationship is not a function.

Since you described a "horizontal wavy line," it's important to note that this implies the line could potentially cross itself at various points vertically.

Given the options provided:

• No, it fails the vertical line test.

This response would be appropriate if the wavy line does indeed intersect any vertical line more than once, indicating that it is not a function.

So the correct answer would be: No, it fails the vertical line test.
