Which of the following correctly indicates whether the set of ordered pairs {(1, 3), (2, 2), (3, 1), (4, 0)} satisfies the requirements for being a linear function and correctly explains why?

The set of ordered pairs {(1, 3), (2, 2), (3, 1), (4, 0)} satisfies the requirements for being a linear function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the set of ordered pairs

{(1, 3), (2, 2), (3, 1), (4, 0)}

From the ordered pairs, we determine that:

x             y

1             3

2            2

3            1

4            0

Determine the common difference of y-values:

As the common difference of y-values is same, it means the ordered pairs in the table represents the linear function.

In a nutshell,

Please also check the attached graph. The graph is a straight line, further indicating that it is a linear function.

Therefore, the set of ordered pairs {(1, 3), (2, 2), (3, 1), (4, 0)} satisfies the requirements for being a linear function.

company a

step-by-step explanation:

using the linear regression models , it is found that company a   pays about $14 more. but using the same regression (linear) company b pays about $10 more.

so company a pays more than b
