Can't figure this out
try a couple values out
I've plugged them all in
which one works?
Then you didn't plug them in correctly, i already see the answer
for x= 1 y = 16
The closest one I got was C
Did you try B? What values do you get for that?
3x^2+13 plug x values in and see what you get.
3(1) + 13 = 16 ??? true but 3(2) + 13 = 19 Not 25 so the first one is not true
Looking at the rise over run, you will see that the slope is not constant, and thus it is not a linear function.
I thought it had to equal 40?
3x^2+13 3(3^2)+13 3 times 9=27 27+13=40 the input of 3 works. try the other inputs to make sure.
When x=3, then y has to be 40
welp, she got it.
Which one is 40 when you put x = 3
I picked B
and by quick observation like @wio said, the increase in output is not constant for each increase in input, so the function is not linear, (power of x is 1)
right, B is the one
If you get this type of prob again, just test every x value and see if it is true, if you know nothing else
