Question

Why isn’t it a linear function

Answer 1

They don't go up by the same integer each time

Answer 2

Answer:

The given co-ordinates forms an exponential graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function, forms a line on the co-ordinate plane with the same slope for every two of the ordered pairs.But in the given case of the co-ordinate pairs, the slope is not similar, if you want to write this as a equation, you will surely have squares or exponential numbers. And as the name linear suggests, the highest degree a equation or a polynomial van have is 1.

In conclusion, this is not a linear function because it's equation will have exponents in it.
