. Describe a situation that models a linear pattern and then describe a situation that models a nonlinear pattern. Do not state which situation is linear and which is nonlinear. Your classmates will need to determine which is which and then write a function that models the linear situation. Your classmates will also need to write 1 ordered pair that is a solution to the linear function and explain its meaning in the context of the situation.

Linear function

→→1. Distance traveled by me if i am traveling at a constant or uniform speed in equal interval of time is Same . Suppose in 5 minutes i travel 10 km with the help of vehicle and in 10 minute 20 km , in 15 minutes 30 Km...

→→2. Distance traveled by me if my speed is not uniform than in 5 minutes 15 km, 10 minute 25 km, 15 minute 35 km, 20 minute 45 km,...

Non linear function

→→→The number of Bacteria in a colony is increasing at a speed given by the equation :
f(x)= 2 ^x where x=1,2,3,...100 seconds. Find the total number of bacteria after an hour.

Function that models the linear situation:

→→y= 2 x

→→→Ordered Pair=(60,30)→→When i am traveling at a Uniform speed, to travel 60 Km, I took 30 minute.Find the Speed at which i am traveling.
