Function Q: y =1/3x + 2 Identify function Q as linear or nonlinear. State a reason why it is linear or nonlinear.

A linear function is written in slope-intercept form as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

So any function of this shape, is a linear function, such that when graphed it is a straight line.

In this case, the function you wrote is:

Q: y = 1/3x + 2

Now, if the function is exactly what you wrote, then x is in the denominator:

y = 1/(3*x) + 2

Clearly, this is different than the general linear equation you can see above (here the variable is in the denominator) then in this case Q is non-linear.

If instead, the actual function Q is:

Q: y = (1/3)*x + 2

Then this is a linear equation, where the slope is 1/3 and the y-intercept is 2.

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
