Question

Does the table below represent a linear function? Why or why not? ​

Answer 1

No it is not, because if you plotted the points in a graph then drew a line between them it would not be straight.

Answer 2

No, it isn't a linear function

Explanation:

Since a linear function is a function whose graph is a straight line, it would have a constant change in y and constant change in x.

Based on these values, it looks like the line would be more of a parabola (U shape).
