Why implicit function is a function?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
https://mathhelpboards.com/calculus-10/implicit-function-24656.html are some answers to the same question.
Given such a quite broad question, many different answers are possible.
My personal (Pavlovian) reaction would probably mention the implicit function theorem, but I think the discussion is best continued in that other topic.
