A data set can be verified to be a function or not through the vertical line test. In this test, if the data set has points lying on the same vertical line, then it is not a function. This means the points should not have the same x. The answer hence to the problem is B.

A function is a special relationship where each input has a single output.

A. The set {(3, 5), (-1, 7), (3, 9)} doesn't represent a function, because input x=3 has two outputs \(y_1=5\) and \(y_2=9.\)

C. The set {(1, 2), (1, 4), (1, 6)} doesn't represent a function, because input x=1 has three outputs \(y_1=2,\) \(y_2=4\) and \(y_3=6.\)

B. The set {(1, 2), (3, 2), (5, 7)} represents a function, because each input has a single output.

Answer: correct choice is B.
