IDENTIFY WHETHER THE FOLLOWING REAL WORLD EXAMPLES SHOULD BE MODELED BY A LINEAR QUADRATIC OR EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION EACH INK CARTRIDGE PURCHASED FOR A PRINTER COST $12

Linear
Explanation
A linear funciton is a statistical term used to describe a straight-line relationship between two variables,it is defined by
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]so, if we hve have
EACH INK CARTRIDGE PURCHASED FOR A PRINTER COST $12
it means the total cost depends on the number of printers and the rate,so
[tex]total\text{ cost =}rate*number\text{ of printers}[/tex]let
total cost = y
rate= $12
number of printers = 1, so
[tex]y=12x[/tex]therefore,the answer is
Linear
I hope this helps you
