dont answer if you dont have the answer I will report you The graph of a function contains the points (–1, –4), (0, 1), (1, 4). Is the function linear? Explain.
1. The function is linear because the points are not in a straight line.

2. The function is linear because the graph containing the points is not a straight line.

3. The function is linear because the points are in a straight line.

4. The function is not linear because the graph containing the points is not a straight line.

Answer:

  • The function is linear because the points are not in a straight line.

Points that lie along the same line are said to be "collinear" and collinear points must have the same slope between any pair of points.

The answer will be option 1 :-

  1. The function is linear because the points are not in a straight line.

Well, for a straight line the points formed are known as collinear points & the points given ->( -1, –4), (0, 1), (1, 4) are not collinear as they are not formed in the same line of the graph. Also, graphs have straight lines. From this we can see that none of the other options work. Hence, option 1 is the correct answer (✓).
