The Vertical Line Test
An example might be x=cos(y). At any value of x between -1 a nd +1 (a vertical line on the graph) this is multivalued (and so it is called "multivalued"). The relation is a function, because given y you can calculate x. x is a function of y. The relation between y and x can also be written y=cos-1(x) "y is the angle whose cosine is x". From that point of view you can say " y is not a function of x" because for each x, there is more than one y that satisfyies the equation. To summarize, in this example x is a function of y but y is not a function of x.
Assuming that the independent variable (often called "y") is along the vertical axis: to be a function, no vertical line may cross the graph in more than one place.
If a relation can be called a function, it means that the relation maps every element to one and only one other element. If you have some ordered pairs and see that, for example, 1 maps to 4 (1,4) and 1 also maps to 7 (1,7) , you don't have a function.
It is the x-coordinate which may also be called a root or zero of the function.
It is called a function.
It can be casually called the x intercept, but it/they is/are the root(s) of the function represented by the graph
It is a function. If the graph contains at least two points on the same vertical line, then it is not a function. This is called the vertical line test.
The intercept.
A relation is a mapping from elements of one set, called the domain, to elements of another set, called the range. The function of the three terms: relation, domain and range, is to define the parameters of a mapping which may or may not be a function.
There is no function of that name in Excel. There is a function called VLOOKUP which stands for Vertical Lookup, and is probably what you mean.
This is called the y-intercept and represents the value of the plotted function at x = 0.The place where the graph crosses the y axis is called the y intercept.

Draw a graph of a given curve in the xoy plane. Now draw a vertical line so that it cuts the graph. If the vertical line cuts the graph in more than one ordinate then given graph is not a function. If it cuts the graph at a single ordinate such a graph is a function.(is called vertical line test)
It is the x-coordinate which may also be called a root or zero of the function.

There is a method called a vertical line test. A function is defined as a system that has one output for each input. Therefore for every x, there is only one y. So if you draw a vertical line anywhere and you get more than one point that intersects the graph, it is not a function. If it intersects only once, the graph is a function.
