Is the function Linear or Nonlinear?

• Linear

• Nonlinear

For a function to be non-linear, it has a rate of change that varies.

• True

• False

The following table shows a function that is​ ​ (a)   because the rate of change is​ (b)  

• non-linear

• not constant

• linear

• constant

Answer explanation

• Linear; because it can be written in y=mx+b

• Not Linear; because there is a square

• Linear; because it can be written in standard form

• Not linear; because it can't be written in standard form

Why is this function linear?

• This is a linear function because it does not have a constant rate of change

• This is a linear function because it creates a curved line.

• This is a linear function because it have a constant rate of change.

• This is a linear function because it's y-intercept is (0,2)
