Why does the table represent a function?

• For any number of tickets, there is ONLY ONE possible total cost.

• For any total cost, there is ONLY ONE possible number of tickets.

• For any number of tickets, there is MORE THAN ONE possible total cost.

• For any total cost, there is MORE THAN ONE possible number of tickets.

Answer explanation

A relationship is a function when every input has ONLY ONE output!

Is the function linear?

• Yes, the graph is linear because the points form a straight line.

• No, the graph is nonlinear because the points are not connected.

• No, the graph is nonlinear because the points do not form a straight line.
