• Function; it passes the vertical line test

• Not a Function; it fails the vertical line test

How do you use the vertical line test?

• Draw vertical lines through your graph. If any of the vertical lines you draw intersects the graph more than once then the graph is not the graph of a function.

• Draw vertical lines through your graph. If any of the vertical lines you draw intersects the graph more than once, then it is a function.
