Vertical Line Test :
\ A curve in the
plane is the graph of a function of
if and only if no vertical line intersects the curve more than once.
Observe the graph.
\Draw a vertical line along the
axis, the line touches the curve only once.
The graph of the function passes the vertical line test.
\Hence, by the definition of vertical line test, the graph is a function of
.
\
The domain is the set of all values of
on the curve.
The curve is defined for
.
The domain of the function is
.
The range is the set of all values of
on the curve.
The curve takes all the value from
to
.
The range of the function is
.
\
Yes, graph is a function of
.
The domain and range of the function is
and
.
