In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data

Table

x y

2 0

1 9

4 18

7 27

10 36

linear function = ?

Step 02:

linear function

y = k x

point1:

( 2 , 0)

0 = k * 2

0/2 = k

0 = k ===> k 1 = 0

point2:

(1 , 9)

9 = k * 1

9/1 = k

9 = k =

k 1 ≠ k2

0 ≠ 9

The answer is:

The function is not linear
