the data in the table illustrate a linear function
X -3, 0, 3, 6
Y -5, -3, -1, 1
What shape is the slop of the linear function? Which graph represents the data?
The slope of the linear function is positive as the y-values increase as the corresponding x-values increase.
The graph that represents the data is:
```
|
2 +
|
1 + *
|
0 + *
|
-1 + *
|
-2 +
------------------
-3 0 3 6 X
