To determine if a function is linear or nonlinear, we need to check if it can be described by a straight line when plotted on a graph.
1. Linear Functions: These can be written in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The graph is a straight line.
2. Nonlinear Functions: These cannot be expressed in the linear form and may involve variables raised to powers, products of variables, or other non-straight line shapes.
Without seeing the specific table or function you’re referring to, I can’t give a definitive answer.
If you have data points or a specific equation from the table, you can share it, and I’d be happy to help analyze it!
For now, if you find that the changes between x and y are consistent, the function is likely linear; if they vary, it’s nonlinear.
