Hello there!
Linear functions have a continuous pattern in their x and y values.
Let's see the first table.
0, 1, 2, 3
We add 1 every time.
-3, -2, 0, 3
We add 1, add 2, add 3.
That's not a linear function, because it doesn't have a continuous pattern in its y values.
Let's look at the next table.
0, 1, 2, 3
We add 1 every time.
1, 4, 3, 7
We add 3, subtract 1, add 3
That's not a linear function as well.
Now, let's look at the third table:
0, 1, 2, 3
We still add 1.
2, 0, -2, -4
We subtract 2 every time.
So this is a linear function. Hope this helps!
