Answer:

a=2

Step-by-step explanation:

12a - 5 = 4a + 11

Subtract 4a from each side

12a-4a - 5 = 4a-4a + 11

8a -5 = 11

Add 5 to each side

8a -5+5 = 11+5

8a = 16

8a/8 = 16/8

a =2

Which represents a linear function? a. Y=2x b. 2x^2 c. Y=1/x
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Y=2x is linear (also proportional) since it involves only the first power of x

2x^2 is not linear, due to the second power of x (x^2); it is quadratic

Y = 1/x is not linear, due to x being in the denominator.
