Hello Fantaysias,

How are you doing? I know this is kind of late, but here goes nothing! Yes, it is a linear equation, you know this because, the input always will result with the same output. Plus, since it has a slope, which is 10 by the way, it also confirms that this is linear! Linear means, that if you put these plots on a line, it will create a straight line! Hope I helped!

Thank you,
Darian D.

Answer: 5

Explanation:

In the given picture we have a table representing two columns as x and y.

We know that the slope of the function is given by :-


k=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Using points (0,4) and (2,14) from the table , we get the slope of the function will be :-


k=(14-4)/(2-0)\\\\\\=(10)/(2)=5

Therefore, the slope of the given function in the table = 5
