Which of these tables represents a non-linear function? A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 17, 18, 19, 20. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 20, 19, 18, 17.
A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 17, 18, 19, 20. Column 2 is labeled y with entries negative 16, negative 17, negative 18, negative 19.
A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 17, 18, 19, 20. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 16, 17, 19, 20.
A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 17, 18, 19, 20. Column 2 is labeled y with entries negative 20, negative 19, negative 18, negative 17.

we conclude that the table ''A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 17, 18, 19, 20. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 16, 17, 19, 20'' represents a non-linear function.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nature of whether a function can be linear or non-linear, we must check how the x and y values of the table change. If the first difference between y-values remains the same (constant first difference), then the table will represent a linear function, otherwise not.

Given the x and y entries of the first table:

x            y

17           20

18           19

19           18

20          17

From the table, it is clear that as x constantly increases by 1 unit, the y-values are also changing constantly by 1 unit. The first difference between y-values remains the same.

i.e. 19-20=-1, 18-19=-1, 17-18=-1

Thus, this table represents a linear function.

Given the x and y entries of the second table:

x            y

17          -16

18          -17

19           -18

20          -19

From the table, it is clear that as x constantly increases by 1 unit, the y-values are also changing constantly by 1 unit. The first difference between y-values remains the same.

i.e. -17-(-16)=-1, -18-(-17)=-1, -19-(-18)=-1

Thus, this table represents a linear function.

Given the x and y entries of the second table:

x            y

17          16

18          17

19           19

20          20

From the table, it is clear that as x constantly increases by 1 unit, but the y-values are not changing constantly. The first difference between y-values does not remain the same.

i.e. 17- 16 = 1, 19 - 17 = 2, 20 - 19 = 1

Thus, this table does not represent a linear function. Hence, it is a non-linear function.

Given the x and y entries of the second table:

x            y

17          -20

18          -19

19           -18

20          -17

From the table, it is clear that as x constantly increases by 1 unit, the y-values are also changing constantly by 1 unit. The first difference between y-values remains the same.

i.e. -19-(-20)=1, -18-(-19)=1, -17-(-18)=1

Thus, this table represents a linear function.

Therefore, we conclude that the table ''A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 17, 18, 19, 20. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 16, 17, 19, 20'' represents a non-linear function.
