Which statement best explains whether the table represents a linear or nonlinear function?

Answer: A.) It is a linear function because there is a constant rate of change in both the input and output values.

============================================================

Explanation:

Note how x is decreasing by 3 each time

  • -2-3 = -5
  • -5-3 = -8
  • -8-3 = -11

At the same time, y is also decreasing by 3 each time

  • 7-3 = 4
  • 4-3 = 1
  • 1-3 = -2

This means we have a linear function. We have,

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

slope = (-3)/(-3)

slope = 1

Recall that slope is another term for rate of change, so a constant slope means we have a constant rate of change.

----------------

Another way to find the slope is to pick any two points from the table and use the slope formula

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

You should find that any two points you pick will lead to a slope of 1. I recommend you try out all possible pairs to help convince yourself the slope is 1.

Answer: $293.28

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 282 is the 100% price tag on the bicycle. And there is a 4% tax applied to the 282. So we need to find out how much is 4% of 282.

282/100% = x/4% (we don’t know how much is 4% so its represented by X.


do a cross over where you end up with this:


282 (4) = x (100) we want to have X on its own as it represents the 4% to which we are looking for the amount in dollars. So you end up with this:


282 (4) /100 = x


solve the multiplication first and then divide.


1128/100 = x

11.28 = x


so now we know 4% of 282 is $11.28 so we add it to know how much does this person pay.


$282 + $11.28 = $293.28
