Question

which of the following best describes the equation
y=9x+6
A:nonlinear
B:linear
C:neither linear or nonlinear
D:both linear and nonlinear
please help

Answer 1

What do you think?

Answer 2

Can you eliminate some choices right away?

Answer 3

What do you mean eliminate choices right away

Answer 4

Like exclude from being the answer, do you see any choices that are automatically wrong?

Answer 5

Neither linear or nonlinear

Answer 6

or nonlinear

Answer 7

A can't be the answer, knowing what a linear equation is.
B can be it.
C and D can't be, becuase it can't be so, or not so at the same time.

Answer 8

See my point?

Answer 9

its be then

Answer 10

i mean b

Answer 11

Yes, B (linear) and E (please help)

Answer 12

no the please help was just a question for help

Answer 13

Ik, I'm kidding.

Answer 14

hey just one more question please,sorry kind of new with this type of math

Answer 15

Okay, you can ask this one here, but next time, one question per thread.

Answer 16

okay here it is:
the table below shows a nonlinear function:
x y
1 1
3 2
7 4
10 5
13 7
which of coordinates should be changed to (11,6)in order to make this a linear function?

Answer 17

lets take the columns and write them as equations.

how about

y=2x-1

see that everything fits into this besides the 4th column where it says x-10 y-5
how would you change that column to make it fit into y=2x-1?

Answer 18

10/2 and 5/1

Answer 19

I kind of misread the question, it asks "which of the columns should be changed to (11,6)?"

then it's pretty obvious right, tell me, which column should be changed into (11, 6)

or into

x y

11 6

Answer 20

well i think the last column x =13 y=7 am i right?

Answer 21

no, because that column does fit into y=2x-1
because 13=2(7)-1

Answer 22

the column x=10 y=5

Answer 23

YEP!!!!!

Answer 24

That's right!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 25

wait im right?
