Which graph represents a linear function?

a coordinate plane is shown with a curved line that starts in the bottom left area of the graph, passing through the point -1 comma -5, curving to pass through the y-axis at 2.5, then curving up again to pass through the point 1 comma 5

a coordinate plane is shown with a line passing through the x-axis at negative 2 and the y-axis at negative 6.

a coordinate plane is shown with a parabola graphed in an upward u shape. the bottom of the parabola touches the y-axis at -10 and curves upward on both sides

a coordinate plane is shown with a wavy line that sits on the x-axis and moves across the graph in even up and down waves.

2nd Option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with four statements which describes a graph of a function.

We need to find the graph which represents the linear function.

Linear Function:

Linear functions are the functions whose graph are straight lines.

A linear function has the following form

y = f(x) = a + bx

A linear function has one independent variable and one dependent variable. The independent variable is x and the dependent variable is y.

So, In graphs of 1st , 3rd and 4th Options are curves not a straight line.

Only 2nd Option has graph which is straight as mentioned in it that a line passing through two points.

Therefore, 2nd Option is correct.

describing distributions is one of the key skills you’ll need to earn a high score on the ap statistics exam. if you need proof of this, just flip through some past exam questions, which can be found at the collegeboard website. you’ll notice that the first free response question is almost always a question requiring you to look at a graph and describe it.

step-by-step explanation: just trying to get points sorry : (

they disappear if your absent from to long. i found out that the hard way.

step-by-step explanation:

brainliest lol i just need one more brainliest.
