Indicate the answer choice that best completes the statement or answers the question. ✓ The table shows the cost of long distance calls as a function of the number of minutes used. Is the cost a linear or nonlinear function of the
number of minutes used? Explain.
Number of Minutes 40 180 120 160 1200
Cost (S)
14.00 8.00
16.00 20.00
12.00

The correct answer is:

Option C: Linear; as x increases by 40 minutes and y increases by $4 each time. The rate of change is constant, so this function is linear.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the table,

The input is x and output is y.

We can see from the table that the x-values are increasing 40 minutes after each input and the output is increasing by equal amount i.e. $4.

The rate of change remains the same.

Hence,

The correct answer is:

Option C: Linear; as x increases by 40 minutes and y increases by $4 each time. The rate of change is constant, so this function is linear.

answer:   segregation violated the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment, which holds that no state can “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

details/explanation:

brown v. board of education of topeka, decided by the us supreme court in 1954, ruled that all americans are entitled to the same civil liberties and protections in regard to access to education. until that decision, it was legal to segregate schools according to race, so that black students could not attend the same schools as white students.   an older supreme court decision, plessy v. ferguson (1896), had said that separate, segregated public facilities were acceptable as long as the facilities offered were equal in quality.   in the case of brown v. board of education, that standard was challenged and defeated.   segregation was shown to create inequality, and the supreme court unanimously ruled segregation to be unconstitutional.

the ruling was important in advancing civil rights because it affirmed that the 14th amendment applies to all rights and privileges of citizens, including access to   education.   this was being violated by states whose laws supported the segregation of schools.   section 1 of the 14th amendment reads as follows:
