5-321
5
O The graph is not a function of x because the line x = O intersects the graph at two points.
The graph is a function of x because the line x = 5 does not intersect the graph.
O The graph is not a function of x because the line y = 0 intersects the graph at two points,
The graph is a function of x because the line y = 5 does not intersect the graph.
