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.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The function given is non-linear.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope between (0, 2) and (2,6):

[tex]\frac{6-2}{2-0}=\frac{4}{2}=\boxed{2}[/tex]

The slope between (2,6), and (3, 12):

[tex]\frac{12-6}{3-2}=\frac{6}{1}=\boxed{6}[/tex]

Since the slopes are not equal to each other, the function is non-linear. A linear function's slope must stay consistent.

Hope this helps.
