the table linear? Explain your answer.

No, the relationship shown by the data in the table is not linear. In a linear relationship, the amount charged would increase by the same amount for each hour worked. In this case, the amount charged increases by $22.50 for each additional hour worked. This indicates a non-linear relationship.
