Linear lines are straight..so is it a linear relationship or not?

OpenStudy (mathmate):

To check if a relationship is linear, calculate the slope \(\large \frac{y_2-y_1}{\ x_2-x_1}\) of every point with respect to one common point (easier) or the previous point. If they are all equal, then it is a linear relationship.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (mathmate):

If you can count on the appearance of the graph, yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its A

OpenStudy (mathmate):

You can also check mathematically by see that for every single step in x, y moves up 3 units. That is the equivalent of checking slope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay so its A ?
