Is y = [tex]\frac{1}{2x}[/tex] + 10 a linear function?
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes it is - when you graph this equation, it results in a [straight] line, signalling that it is a linear function.
No it's not - when you graph this equation, it results in a v- kinda shape on the graph. Linear functions are [straight] lines on a graph, and this line wasn't straight. In fact, this wasn't even a line.
No it's not - when you graph this equation, it results in a bend at the origin. The line on the graph is not straight, so this is not a linear equation.
For the graphs -
The first one represents the linear function [y = 4x - 7]
The second one (that looks like an L) represents the last not linear function [y = [tex]\frac{1}{2x}[/tex] + 10]
The third one (that looks like a V) represents the first not linear function [y = 6x² - 1]
