can we assume that the corresponding x values are increasing by the same factor?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
idk. i dont even know how to do this:(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x | y
------
1 | 5
2 | 10
3 | 15
4 | 20
is different than
x | y
------
2 | 5
20 | 10
55 | 15
100 | 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok lets assume they mean that the corresponding x values are increasing by the same factor
OpenStudy (anonymous):
in that case, then yes you are correct
OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats what i though the answer was.

yeah if you plot the points you can see you can connect them with a single straight line, that means its linear
