One of the tables represents a linear function. Which table is it?

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of a linear function is usually constant and the same between any two coordinate pairs all through.

Rate of change is given as ∆y/∆x.

For the table in option C, the rate of change is constant all through.

We have: (12 - 8)/(3 - 2) = (16 - 12)/(4 - 3) = (20 - 16)/(5 - 4) = 4

Rate of change of constant all through. If we graph the table of values, we'd get a straight line.

Therefore, the table in option C represents a linear function.
