Which statement about the data in the table shown is true? x –2 –1 0 1
y –3 –1 1 3
A. The data do not represent a function.
B. The data represent a nonlinear function.
C. The data represent a quadratic function.
D. The data represent a linear function

i would say B.. sorry of its not the right one..

Step-by-step explanation:

i am thinking c. sorry if im wrong .

step-by-step explanation:

options a,b,c are the right answer.

step-by-step explanation:

a linear parent function is always represented as y = x

if we write this function in the form of y=mx+c

⇒

or  

now if we plot a graph we will find these characteristics:

1) y intercept of the graph is zero so its a straight line passing through origin.

2) as we can see in both the forms of function written, values of x and y may be either positive or negative for the positive slope means points on the graph are either in first quadrant or in third one.

3) it's slope is one.
