Respuesta :

I believe the answer is A

Answer with explanation:

A mapping is said to be function, If no two same elements in preimage have distinct Image.

Here, The Situation is

  Resident Ages →→→→→Zip Codes

It means People who are dwelling in the same colony , has same age ,and same Zip code, which is not possible.

But,So this scenario does not represent a  function.

Option A:

    No, because people who are the same age can have different zip codes
