How can you identify a linear function from a table of values?

Back

A linear function will show a constant rate of change between the x-values and y-values. The difference in y-values divided by the difference in x-values will be the same for all intervals.

How can you identify an exponential function from a table of values?

Back

An exponential function will show a constant multiplicative rate of change. The ratio of consecutive y-values will be the same.
