Which of these tables represents a non-linear function?

Answer:

we conclude that the table ''A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 17, 18, 19, 20. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 16, 17, 19, 20'' represents a non-linear function.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nature of whether a function can be linear or non-linear, we must check how the x and y values of the table change. If the first difference between y-values remains the same (constant first difference), then the table will represent a linear function, otherwise not.

Given the x and y entries of the first table:

x            y

17           20

18           19

19           18

20          17

From the table, it is clear that as x constantly increases by 1 unit, the y-values are also changing constantly by 1 unit. The first difference between y-values remains the same.

i.e. 19-20=-1, 18-19=-1, 17-18=-1

Thus, this table represents a linear function.

Given the x and y entries of the second table:

x            y

17          -16

18          -17

19           -18

20          -19

From the table, it is clear that as x constantly increases by 1 unit, the y-values are also changing constantly by 1 unit. The first difference between y-values remains the same.

i.e. -17-(-16)=-1, -18-(-17)=-1, -19-(-18)=-1

Thus, this table represents a linear function.

Given the x and y entries of the second table:

x            y

17          16

18          17

19           19

20          20

From the table, it is clear that as x constantly increases by 1 unit, but the y-values are not changing constantly. The first difference between y-values does not remain the same.

i.e. 17- 16 = 1, 19 - 17 = 2, 20 - 19 = 1

Thus, this table does not represent a linear function. Hence, it is a non-linear function.

Given the x and y entries of the second table:

x            y

17          -20

18          -19

19           -18

20          -17

From the table, it is clear that as x constantly increases by 1 unit, the y-values are also changing constantly by 1 unit. The first difference between y-values remains the same.

i.e. -19-(-20)=1, -18-(-19)=1, -17-(-18)=1

Thus, this table represents a linear function.

Therefore, we conclude that the table ''A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 17, 18, 19, 20. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 16, 17, 19, 20'' represents a non-linear function.

Elena bowls two games on Saturday. Her score in the second game is 30 more than ¾ of her score the first game. Elena's total sco
grin007 [14]

Answer:

222 = score in 2nd game

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = score in 1st game

3/4(x) + 30 = score in 2nd game

x + 3/4(x) + 30 = 478         Multiply thru by 4 to eliminate the fraction

4x + 3x + 120 = 1912

7x + 120 = 1912

7x = 1792

x = 256

3/4(x) + 30 = 3/4(256) + 30

= 192 + 30

222 = score in 2nd game

Check:  222 + 256 = 478

An unknown capital gets added 5% interest per year by a bank. After how many years does the capital get three times as big, cons
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

After 23 years , the capital will get three times as big

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let us write the compound interest formula

P = I( 1 + r)^n

Since we are considering a capital rise of 3 times

If I, the initial value is x, the P

value later will be 3x

Interest rate is 5/100 = 0.05

so we need the value of t

This will be;

3x = x(1 + 0.05)^t

3= 1.05^t

ln 3 = t ln 1.05

t = ln 3/ln 1.05

t = 23 years
