Part A: A graph passes through the points (0, 2), (2, 6), and (3, 12). Does this graph represent a linear function or a non-linear function? Explain your answer in words.

FantasticlyArtsy:

We need the graph

26millecai:

there is no graph

FantasticlyArtsy:

Oh-

26millecai:

yuh

3. (04.04 MC) Part A: A graph passes through the points (0, 2), (2, 6), and (3, 12). Does this graph represent a linear function or a non-linear function? Explain your answer in words. Part B: Write one example of a linear function and one example of a non-linear function. (Use x and y as the variables) (10 points)

FantasticlyArtsy:

A linear function is a stright line unlike an non-linear function, is the line going in a straight line going through the center?

FantasticlyArtsy:

Wait, is this a quiz or test of any sort?

26millecai:

yea pre test

FantasticlyArtsy:

I am unsure if a pre-test is against the rules

FantasticlyArtsy:

I'll have to ask a mod

technecly yeah i got warned for it last year when i was useing uhhh the online school thing

Bruh just help like at least you be doing something good..and i am sorry but i do not know how to explaing in graphics way but a non linear is a not a straight line and a linear is a is a straight line. To know the if the graph is linear or not you will have to use the linear table

You mean virtual?

06natrod52378:

yeahh

Generate a straight line(linear) for the points (0,2) and (2,6). And then, check whether this straight line would pass through the point (3,12) or not? If Yes, then you'd get a linear function. If No, then you'd get a non-linear function

So is that how you tell if the numbers together makes a linear function or a non linear??

06natrod52378:

have u tried useing desmos test mode? it helps a lot when you are trying to do this kinda of thing.

loveboy:

Linear function means straight line. If I'm getting a straight line which passes through all three points, then we'd get a linear function,right.

loveboy:

Non-linear function includes a curve. Eg. Quadratic curve is a non-linear function.
