The following table shows the values of y for different values of X:
ху
05
1 0
25
Which statement best explains whether the table represents a linear function or a nonlinear function? (5 points)
It represents a linear function because its points are on a straight line.
It represents a linear function because its points are not on a straight line.
It represents a nonlinear function because its points are on a straight line.
It represents a nonlinear function because its points are not on a straight line.

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

It represents a linear function because its points are on a staright line.

We know that linear functions always have to be on a staright line.

If you go on an online graphing website and plot these points, you will get a staright line.

HOPE THIS HELPED!!

Answer 2

It represents a linear function because its points are on a straight line.

Explanation:

I'm on that question right now, I'm pretty sure this is the correct answer because it's the only one that makes sense. Linear functions have to be straight lines and this was the only option that said that, and we know the values are a constant function because the x values increase by 1 and all of the numbers are unique, and the y values decrease by 5. Therefore, this is a linear function and it's a straight line. You got this!
