Answer:

Graph D

Explanation:

Graph A is incorrect because that is a graph of a negative exponential function.

Graph B is incorrect because that is a graph of a square root function.

Graph C is incorrect because that is a graph of a positive exponential function.

Graph D is correct because linear functions are always straight lines. Linear functions have the base equation of y = mx + b . Because there is only one "x" value to the first power, the function increases by the same amount between each "x" value.
