Answer:
Surface area = 6l^2
Volume = l^3
If total surface area increased by 2, then the length increased by 
Volume then is increased by (
l)^3 = 2
l^3
1 :2 
Which is not an option in the question so this question clearly has a problem.
First of all It's supposed to be "then" not "than," so I'm not sure who teaches math without even knowing this basic grammar.
Second of all, if the answer is 8:1 the question should be "If <u>each sides</u> of a cube is doubled" not "the lateral surface area." Come to think of it what even is lateral surface area of a cube if all sides of the cube is supposed to be same.
Or, if the answer is 2:1 then, it should be If height lateral surface area of a cube is doubled <u>by doubling the height and without changing the length and width</u>" But, then the the shape would no longer be a cube.
Who even wrote this garbage question what.
Answer:
It's linear
Step-by-step explanation:
Linear equations have no exponents higher than a 1, which is the case for this equation cause if there's no exponent it's cause it's just a 1. Non-linear has a exponent higher than a 1, ex. 
7 I think, I’m sorry if I’m wrong
Point slope form
y-y1=m(x-x1)
slope=m
a point is (x1,y1)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(-6,4) and (2,0)
slope=(0-4)/(2-(-6))=-4/(2+6)=-4/8=-1/2
a point is (-6,4)
x1=-6
y1=4
y-4=-1/2(x+6)
