The graph of a function is shown above. Which statement is true about a section of the graph?

• In Section N, the function is linear and decreasing.

• In Section P, the function is linear and increasing.

• In Section Q, the function in nonlinear and decreasing.

• In Section R, the function is nonlinear and increasing.

Determine if the graph is linear or nonlinear.

• Linear

• Nonlinear

Graph the function (there may be more than one correct answer)

Between x = 0 and x = 4 which is the correct description?

• Linear & Increasing

• Linear & Decreasing

• Non-linear & Increasing

• Non-linear & Decreasing

Given the function A = s^2 representing the area of a square as a function of its side length, explain why this function is nonlinear.

• Because its graph forms a straight line

• Because its graph does not form a straight line

• Because it is in the form y = mx + b

• Because it has a constant slope

This is the graph of a linear equation

• This is the graph of a linear equation

• This is the graph of a non linear equation
