Study this table. x y –3 –2 –2 0 0 4 4 12 Which best describes the function represented by the data in the table? linear with a
ss7ja [257]

we can do this by 2 ways

1- by plotting the points on graph and then tracing the points to get shape,

for linear, we will get straight line

for quadratic, we will get parabola

in this case, it is linear as we get a straight line

2- by solving for values of x and y

consider standard linear equation y = mx +c where m is slope and c is constant

by putting given values of x and y we get

y + 2x = 4(answer)

if we consider standard parabola equation

y^2 = 4ax

this equation is not true for given points
