A function has that for every x, there is a different y value. 

In the equation 3x+8=y, it's pretty clear that 2 different x values can create the same y value. 

You can also graph it in desmos to see. 

So, 3x+8=y is a function. :))

I think, when you said "In the equation 3x+8=y, it's pretty clear that 2 different x values can create the same y value.", you meant "In the equation 3x+8=y, it's pretty clear that 2 different x values CANNOT create the same y value."
