Yes it is, but it is not a function.
True
One way is to try the vertical line test on a graph!
If a vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point then it is not a function.
You use the "vertical line test". If anywhere you can draw a vertical line that goes through two points of the graph, the relation is not a function; otherwise, it is a function. This is just another way of saying that in a function for every x value (input) there is AT MOST one y value (output).
A vertical line!
A vertical line. Remember that one test to see if a relation is a function is the vertical line test. A vertical line would fail that of course.

True.

true
A function can never be a vertical line, because it then fails the definition of a function: every x value outputs only 1 y value. The vertical line test will determine if a relation is a function. If a vertical line intersects the graph of the function at more than one place, it is not a function.
Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.
Two ways to determine whether the relation is a function is use a mapping diagram or use a vertical line test.
"y = f(x) is a function if it passes the vertical line test. It is a 1-1 function if it passes both the vertical line test and the horizontal line test. " - In order to be a one-to-one function, it first has to BE a function and pass the vertical line test. For example, a relation on a graph like a circle that does not pass the vertical line test is not function nor one-to-one.
If a vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point then it is not a function.
