A) $y$ is a function of $x$
B) $y$ is not a function of $x$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To determine if y is a function of x, we need to check if there is only one unique y-value for each x-value. Solving for y, we get: 
$$y = \frac{1}{x+6}$$
Since there is only one possible y-value for each x-value, y is a function of x.
