Is y=3x^3+4x^2+15x+7 a function and if it is, explain

========================================================

Explanation:

It is a function because any x input leads to exactly one y output. The graph visually passes the vertical line test. It is impossible to draw a single vertical line through more than one point on the cubic curve, so that's why the graph passes the test, and visually confirms we have a function.

------------------

Extra info:

Something that isn't a function is because it graphs a sideways parabola in which it is possible to draw a vertical line through more than one point on the curve. Two points on this parabola are (9, 3) and (9, -3). The input x = 9 corresponds to more than one output y = 3 and y = -3 simultaneously.
