I think it is B. or C, but im not sure

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Is the blue graph a straight line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910 No, i dont think so at least

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

It's not a straight line. Therefore, this equation is not linear.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Linear equations produce completely straight lines on the graph.

@jim_thompson5910 You're right Im pretty sure i know this is a function so A is not right either.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

good

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

it passes the vertical line test so it's a function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910 and i know its one to one for sure so it has to be C right

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

we already eliminated C

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

it's not linear

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910 Oh i ment B Its one to one because it also passed the horizontal line test

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910 Thanks alot you were a big help

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
