Question

Here's a question for the day, it's simple but it needs explaining.

Explain why the vertical line test is used to determine if a graph represents a function.

I will vote from the two and might even vote for brainiest :D

Answer 1

it is used to see if a graph represents a function because if there is 2 dots or intersecting lines within the other lines then it is not a function. if there is only one line or dot, then yes, it is a function. hope i explained it well.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of a function must pass the vertical line test. When a vertical line passes through the graph of a function, it will intersect the graph at only one point. More than one point on any given vertical line means that the same x is being paired with two different y's, and, therefore, the graph is not a function.
