Question

Determine whether the graph table or equation represents a linear or nonlinear function explain

Answer 1

Linear, The rate of change is constant.

Explanation:

-3 + 3 = 0

0 + 3 = 3

So x is constant

4 + 2 = 6

6 + 2 =8

So y is constant

Answer 2

Answer: Linear

Each time x goes up by 3, y goes up by 2. The rate of change is constant.

slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = 2/3

y intercept = 6 since this is where x = 0

The equation of this line is y = (2/3)x+6
