The video tutorial explains linear functions, their characteristics, and how to identify them. It covers the standard form of linear equations and highlights that linear functions create a line when graphed. The tutorial provides examples to distinguish between linear and non-linear functions by examining constant changes in x and y values. The lesson concludes with a summary and a practice problem to reinforce understanding.

What is the basic definition of a linear function?

• A function that creates a curve when graphed

• A function that has variables in the denominator

• A function that creates a line when graphed

• A function that includes exponents greater than one

What does a constant change in X corresponding to a constant change in Y represent?

• The slope of a linear function

• The intercept of a linear function

• The asymptote of a function

• The curvature of a function
