Hi here’s your answer to the problem

The table provided shows a function with an x-value of 3, 6, and 9, and a y-value of 19, 12, and 2 respectively. From this, it can be determined that the function is nonlinear, as the y-values do not increase or decrease at a consistent rate as the x-values increase.
