Answer: Option B) y = (1/6)x
Explanation:
A linear function is one to which the highest degree of any of the its variables is raised is 1. Also there is one independent variable "x" and one dependent variable "y".
In this case: y = (1/6)x
The value of y depends on the value of x
whereas the value of x depends on nothing else. And both "x" and "y" are raised to a degree of just 1.
Thus, y = (1/6)x is a linear function
