Is the graph of y = x^2 a function?

Back

Function (each x-value has one corresponding y-value).

Is the graph of y = √x a function?

Back

Function (each x-value has one corresponding y-value).

Front

Is the graph of y = ±√x a function?

Back

Not a Function (each x-value has two corresponding y-values).
