Question

Part A: A graph passes through the points (0, 2), (2, 6), and (3, 12). Does this graph represent a linear function or a non-linear function? Explain your answer in words.
Part B: Write one example of a linear function and one example of a non-linear function. (Use x and y as the variables)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: No. The line would have to be straight in order for the graph to be linear.

Part B:

Linear: y=2x-4.

Nonlinear: y=x^2-6.

Answer 2

Part A: No. The line would have to be straight in order for the graph to be linear.

Part B:

Linear: y=2x-4.

Nonlinear: y=x^2-6.
