Question

Which equation represents a linear function? Equation 1: y = 2x + 1 Equation 2: y2 = 3x + 1 Equation 3: y = 5x5 − 1 Equation 4: y = 4x4 − 1 Equation 1 Equation 2 Equation 3 Equation 4

Answer 1

Answer: I would think that equation 1 represents a linear function as it fllows the y= mx +b formula.

Step-by-step explanation: Linear functions sometimes use slope intercept form which is y = mx + b in this equation 2x would be your slope and 1 would be your y intercept.

Answer 2

Equation 1

Explanation:

It does not have an x value with an exponent of 2 or greater.
