Concept explainers
Determine whether each function is linear or not.
Answer to Problem 5CYU
Not a linear function.
Explanation of Solution
Given information: A x-y table
In order to find if it’s a linear function or not, we need to check the differences of consecutive x and y-values in the table.
From the table, we could see differences consecutive y values are same but consecutive x-values are different. So, there is not a constant rate of change in given table.
Therefore, given table does not represent a linear function.
