What is a linear function?

Back

A linear function is a function that creates a straight line when graphed. It has a constant rate of change and can be expressed in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

What is an exponential function?

Back

An exponential function is a function where the variable is in the exponent. It can be expressed in the form y = a(b^x), where a is a constant, b is the base, and x is the exponent.

How can you identify a linear function from a table of values?

Back

A linear function will show a constant difference between consecutive y-values for equal increments in x-values.

What does it mean for a function to multiply the same number each time?

Back

This describes an exponential function, where each output is obtained by multiplying the previous output by a constant factor.
