Question

Which of these tables represents a linear function? A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 3, 4, 5, 6. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 3, 4, 6, 7. A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 3, 4, 5, 6. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 6, 5, 4, 3. A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 3, 4, 5, 6. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 7, 6, 5, 3. A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 3, 4, 5, 6. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 2, 4, 5, 6.

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

    The other tables don't increase or decrease by only one number.  I'm pretty sure it's B. If it isn't, my apologies.

Answer 2

Answer:

the table :

(-3,8.5) .....x1 = -3 and y1 = 8.5

(-1,5.5) ....x2 = -1 and y2 = 5.5

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (5.5 - 8.5) / (-1 - (-3) = - 3 / (-1 + 3) = -3/2

coordinate plane :

(-3,0), (2,0)

notice how u have the same y values of 0....this means u have a horizontal line where no matter what x is, y will always be 0. A horizontal line has a slope of 0. And ur y intercept is (0,0)

the linear function that is in the table contains a negative slope and also has a steeper slope then the one on the coordinate plane <===
