Answer:
A. f and h
Step-by-step explanation:
For a linear function the First Differences of the y-values must be a constant. i.e. if we take the difference between any two consecutive y values or values of f(x) it should be the constant. For this rule to work, x values must change by the same number every time, which is true for all three given functions.
For function f:
The values of f(x) are: 5,8,11,14
We can see the difference in consecutive two values is a constant i.e. 3, so the First Difference is the same. Hence, function f is a linear function.
For function g:
The values of g(x) are: 8,4,16,32
We can see the difference among two consecutive values is not a constant. Since the first differences are not the same, this function is not a linear.
For function h:
The values of h(x) are: 28, 64, 100, 136
We can see the difference among two consecutive values is a constant i.e. 36. Therefore, function h is a linear function.
