Which graph represents a linear function?

A coordinate plane is shown with a line passing through the y-axis at 7.5 and the x-axis at 12
A coordinate plane is shown with a line that starts to the left of the y-axis, passing through -1 comma 10, then curving right to pass through the y-axis 7, then curving down to pass through the x-axis at 2
A coordinate plane is shown with a parabola opening downward in an upside-down U shape. The base of the parabola sits at the origin and continues downward on both sides of the y-axis
A coordinate plane is shown. A wavy line begins along the x-axis and moves in intervals downward and back up, dipping down to y equals negative 1 and up to y equals 1.

Answer:

First Graph Description

Explanation:

A linear function shows as a straight line.

The first graph description describes a straight line.

The second, third, and fourth graph description says that either the line is curved, or that it is a parabola. A parabola is not linear.

A coordinate plane is shown with a line that starts to the left of the y-axis, passing through -1 comma 10, then curving right to pass through the y-axis 7, then curving down to pass through the x-axis at 2

A coordinate plane is shown with a parabola opening downward in an upside-down U shape. The base of the parabola sits at the origin and continues downward on both sides of the y-axis

A coordinate plane is shown. A wavy line begins along the x-axis and moves in intervals downward and back up, dipping down to y equals negative 1 and up to y equals 1.

Hope this helps.
