Part A: A graph passes through the points (0,2), (1,3), and (2,4). Does this graph represent a linear function or a non-linear function? Explain your answer in words. Part B: Write one example of a linear function and one example of a nonlinear function. (Use x and y as the variables)

  A) linear

  B) y = x is linear; y = 1/x is non-linear

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The points lie on the same straight line, so the function is linear.

__

B) Any function that has x to a power other than 1 will be non-linear.

  linear function: y = x

  nonlinear function: y = x^-1 = 1/x

Step-by-step explanation:

A) linear

 B) y = x is linear; y = 1/x is non-linear

A) The points lie on the same straight line, so the function is linear.

B) Any function that has x to a power other than 1 will be non-linear.

 linear function: y = x

 nonlinear function: y = x^-1 = 1/x

function 2 has a greater rate of change than function 1

function 2 has a greater y-intercept than function 1
