question 4 - 1 point
which of the following graphs shows a function?
select all correct answers.
select all that apply:

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Vertical Line Test

A graph represents a function if no vertical line intersects the graph more than once.

Step2: Analyze First Graph

For the first (top) graph, a vertical line would intersect it more than once (due to the "corner" and the lines), so it's not a function.

Step3: Analyze Second Graph

The second (middle) graph is a curve that a vertical line would intersect twice, so it's not a function.

Step4: Analyze Third Graph

The third (bottom, parabola - shaped) graph: any vertical line will intersect it at most once, so it passes the vertical line test.

Answer:

The bottom graph (the parabola - shaped one)
