Describe a situation that models a linear pattern and then describe a situation that models a nonlinear pattern. Do not state wh

ich situation is linear and which is nonlinear. Your classmates will need to determine which is which and then write a function that models the linear situation. Your classmates will also need to write 1 ordered pair that is a solution to the linear function and explain its meaning in the context of the situation.

Answer:

When we talk about linear patterns, we refer to those events where events are related with a linear proportion, that is, if one magnitude increases, the other one will to, or if one magnitude increases the other would decrease, and this behaviour with a linear function which is represented as a line.

So, one example of linear model would be speed, which relates distances and time in a linear behaviour, which function is

s=\frac{d}{t}

So, if one ball has a speed of 3 meters per second, the function would be

3=\frac{d}{t}\\ d=3t

Where t represents the independent variable (horizontal axis) because it represents time, and d is distance, which is a dependent variable.

On the other hand, a non linear model could be population growth, which is an exponential beahaviour. It's not represented with a linear function, that's why is not linear.

An example of a function that represents population growth is

N(t)=N_{0} e^{rt}

Where t is time (horizontal axis), r is growth rate, N_{0} is the initial population and N(t) is the population after t time.

A specific example is

N(t)=12e^{0.012t}

At last, each function graph is attached, there you could see a lot better, the linear and non-linear behaviour.

Tempestt graphs a function that has a maximum located at (-4, 2). Which could be her graph?
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the function is a parabola.

The function has a maximum, so the parabola opens downward.

The maximum is at (-4,2), so the maximum is in the second quadrant.

The figure may look like the diagram below.

Given the domain values {-3, 0, 3} what is the range for the equation f(x) = −5x + 2? Question options: {-3, 0, 3} {-6, 2, 6} {-
Fynjy0 [20]

The range is the set of all possible output, as you feed the function with all possible inputs. Since our inputs (domain) are -3, 0, 3, our outputs are

f(-3) = 15+2 = 17\\f(0)=0+2 = 2\\f(3) = -15+2 = -13

So, the range is

\{-13, 2, 17\}
