Final answer:
The given table does not represent a linear function.
Step-by-step explanation:
This table contains the following points: (1,5), (2,10), (3,7), and (4,14). Each of these points can be plotted on a graph and connected to produce a graphical representation of the dependence of y on x.
To determine if the table could be a partial set of values for a linear function, we can check if the points lie on a straight line when connected. If the points are collinear, then the table represents a linear function. In this case, the points do not lie on a straight line, so this table does not represent a linear function.
