Answer:
D. f and h
Explanation:
The function f is a liner function because for every increase in x, there is a proportional increase in f(x). This can be seen when the x value goes from 2 to 4, so a 2 unit increase, the f(x) value increases by 3. Since this is true for every interval of 2 in f(x) -- increase x by 2 results in an increase in 3 of f(x) -- then f(x) is a linear function.
The same principle can be applied to h(x), with each 4 unit increase in x, the h(x) value increase by 36.
The function g(x) is not a linear function because for each unit increase of x, there is not a proportional increase (or decrease) in g(x). As seen in the table, g(2)-g(1)= 8-4= 4. For g(x) to be a linear function, every other one unit increase in x should result in a 4 unit increase in g(x0. But this does not occur. g(3)-g(2)= 16-8= 8 , g(4)-g(3)= 32-16= 16, 8 and 16 are not equal to four so g(x) cannot be a linear function.
