Question

Which situation can be modeled by a linear function? * 1 point The value of a car decreases by 10% every year. The number of fish in a lake doubles every 5 years 2 liters of water evaporate from a pool everyday The amount of caffeine in a person's body decreases by 1/3 every 2 hours.

Answer 1

The third equation where 2 liters of water evaporate from a pool every day is linear

Explanation:
