Question

Is the function in the table linear or nonlinear and why?
x y
−2 5
0 10
2 15
4 20
6 25



a.The function is linear because there is a constant rate of change.

b.The function is not linear because there is a negative x-value.

c.The function is linear because the y-intercept is 0.

d.The function is linear because all the y-values are positive.

Answer 1

Answer:

          The function in the given table is Linear

Step-by-step explanation:

Option 'a' is the right option.

⇒ a.The function is linear because there is a constant rate of change.

This function can be represented by the following equation

⇒  y = m x + c

⇒ y = 5/2 x + 10   ....... (i)

Where

m = Slope = 5/2

c = y-intercept = 10

Putting the values of 'x' in (i), we will get the corresponding values of 'y'.

I hope it will help you.
