  1. A statement best describes the functions represented by the tables is that: A. function p is nonlinear and exponential.

    What is a linear function?

    A linear function can be defined as a type of function whose equation is graphically represented by a straight line on the cartesian coordinate.

    What is a slope?

    A slope is also referred to as gradient and it’s typically used to describe both the ratio, direction and steepness of the function of a straight line.
    Mathematically, the standard form of the equation of a linear function is given by;
    y = mx + c
    Based on the data provided in the table, we would determine the slope:
    Slope, m = Δp(x)/Δx
    Slope, m = (16-4)/(1-0)
    Slope, m = 12/1
    Slope, m = 12.
    Slope, m = (64-16)/(2-0)
    Slope, m = 48/2
    Slope, m = 24.
    For the slope of g(x), we have:
    Slope, m = Δg(x)/Δx
    Slope, m = (15-3)/(2-0)
    Slope, m = 12/2
    Slope, m = 6.
    Slope, m = (33-15)/(5-2)
    Slope, m = 18/3
    Slope, m = 6.
