In math, a function is a relation between a set of inputs (the domain) and a set of outputs (the range), where each input is related to exactly one output. In other words, for every input there is a unique output.

In the given table, the days of the week are the inputs and the number of children in the car are the outputs. Each day of the week is matched with a specific number of children in the car. For example, Sunday is always associated with 2 children, Monday with 4 children, and so on. This shows that for each day of the week, there is exactly one number of children in the car, making it a function.

Therefore, the table shows a function because it follows the definition of a function by having a unique output for each input.
