Afunction of the form f(x) = mx + b, where m and b are real numbers, is called a

A function of the form , where 'm' and 'b' are real numbers, is called a linear function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function is one in which the value of the function varies linearly with 'x'. When we plot a linear function on a graph, the resulting curve is always a straight line with the slope of the line being constant.

A linear function is of the form:

, where, 'm' and 'b' are real numbers.

The degree or the highest exponent of 'x' in a linear function is always equal to 1.

Therefore, a function of the form , where 'm' and 'b' are real numbers, is called a linear function.

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4

200< 260 < 265

connie < felicia < stew

the answer is b.
