7 E - BOOK FOR COLLEGE ALGEBRA King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals Vertical Line Test KFUPM - Prep Year Math Program (c) 2009 All Right Reserved It is important to understand that not every graph represents a function. For example, in the given graph the vertical, line L Vertical Line Test meets the graph twice. This means that there are two y-values for the same x where the line L meets the x-axis. Therefore, does not represent a function.

8 E - BOOK FOR COLLEGE ALGEBRA King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals KFUPM - Prep Year Math Program (c) 2009 All Right Reserved Example 4 Determine which of graphs represent the graph of a function. While, the graphs in figures (b), (d), (e) and (f) do belong to functions. Using the vertical line test, we see that the graphs in figures (a) and (c) are not graphs for functions.
