Question

Sample Response: A linear function has a constant additive rate of change, while a nonlinear function does not. For a table of values to be linear, the dependent variable must have a constant rate of change as the independent variable increases by 1. On a graph, the function must be a straight line to be linear.What did you include in your response? Check all that apply.

Answer 1

the third one and the first one 

Answer 2

Answer:

The response that are true are:

• linear function has a constant additive rate of change, while a nonlinear function does not.

Since in linear function the rate of change is always equal as for a linear function we get a equation of line such that the slope is same.

• On a graph, the function must be a straight line to be linear.

Liner means there is a straight line of the function.

( Also it need not be true that the independent variable increases by 1.

There may be change of some other quantity in independent variable )
