In mathematics, a function is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of possible outputs where each input is related to exactly one output. In other words, for every input, there is one and only one output.

In the table provided, the Day of the Week serves as the input and the Number of Children in the Car serves as the output. Each day of the week corresponds to a specific number of children in the car. There are no two different outputs (number of children) assigned to the same input (day of the week). Therefore, this table shows a function because each input has a unique output, satisfying the definition of a mathematical function.
