The vertical line test is used to determine if a relation is a function. If a vertical line can be drawn that intersects the graph in more than one point, then the relation is not a function. If the vertical line only intersects the graph at one point, then the relation is a function.
Looking at the graph of the plotted points, if a vertical line is drawn, it can be seen that for every x-value, there is only one y-value. Therefore, the relation is a function.
The correct response is: yes
Use the vertical line test to determine whether the relation graphed below is a function.
A coordinate grid is shown with four plotted points at the following locations: · left-parenthesis negative 4 comma 3 right-parenthesis · left-parenthesis negative 2 comma negative 1 right-parenthesis · left-parenthesis 1 comma 2 right-parenthesis · left-parenthesis 3 comma negative 2 right-parenthesis
(1 point)
