Which table represents a linear function?

Well, a linear function is proportional, a straight line (on a graph). And the numbers must not have the same answer. For instance, if the X input is 5, and the Y output is 7. And then another X input is 5, and the Y output is 8, that's non-linear.

So, the Answer would be the third graph. This is because the X values are steadily increasing, and so are the Y values. 

For the X and Y values, for each time X increases by 1, Y increases by -8. This is, linear because both sides are constantly and evenly increasing.

Table 3 represents the linear function.

Further explanation:

The linear equation with slope m and intercept c is given as follows.

\boxed{y = mx + c}

The formula for slope of line with points \left( {{x_1},{y_1}} \right) and \left( {{x_2},{y_2}} \right) can be expressed as,

\boxed{m = \frac{{{y_2} - {y_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}}}

Explanation:

In table 1,

The slope can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m&=\frac{{ - 6 + 2}}{{2 - 1}}\\&=\frac{{ - 4}}{1}\\&= - 4\\\end{aligned}

The slope of other two points can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m&= \frac{{ - 2 + 6}}{{3 - 2}}\\&= \frac{4}{1}\\&=4\\\end{aligned}

The slope is not equal. Therefore, table 1 is not correct.

In table 2,

The slope can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m&= \frac{{ - 5 + 2}}{{2 - 1}}\\&=\frac{{ - 3}}{1}\\&= - 3\\\end{aligned}

The slope of other two points can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m&=\frac{{ - 9 + 5}}{{3 - 2}}\\&= \frac{{ - 4}}{1}\\&= - 4\\\end{aligned}

The slope is not equal. Therefore, table 2 is not correct.

In table 3,

The slope can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m&= \frac{{ - 10 + 2}}{{2 - 1}}\\&= \frac{{ - 8}}{1}\\&= - 8\\\end{aligned}

The slope of other two points can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m&= \frac{{ - 18 + 10}}{{3 - 2}}\\&= \frac{{ - 8}}{1}\\&= - 8\\\end{aligned}

The slopes are equal. Therefore, table 3 is correct.

In table 4,

The slope can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m&= \frac{{ - 4 + 2}}{{2 - 1}}\\&=\frac{{ - 2}}{1}\\&= - 2\\\end{aligned}

The slope of other two points can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m&=\frac{{ - 8 + 4}}{{3 - 2}}\\&= \frac{{ - 4}}{1}\\&= - 4\\\end{aligned}

The slope is not equal. Therefore, table 4 is not correct.

Table 3 represents the linear function.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP TRANSLATING SENTENCES INTO EQUATIONS
adell [148]

Answer:

5×(w + 7) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

w is the unknown number.

5 times something means multiply something 5 times.

a sum means adding things

so, the sum of a number and 7 is

w + 7

5 times that sum is then

5×(w + 7)

and that while thing is (equals) 4

5×(w + 7) = 4

by the way, solving that means

5w + 35 = 4

5w = -31

w = -31/5

17 x - 3 - x -9 = 68 <br>(please show step by step) ​
Marrrta [24]

Answer

The answer is x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

17x-3-x-9=68

Okay so first you need to combine similar terms.

So -3-9=-12

17x-x=16x

So then you get 16x-12=68

Add 12 on both sides

then you get 16x= 80

Divide by 16 on both sides

80/16=5

so then you get

x=5
