To determine whether the rate of the number of m-sides produced over time is linear or non-linear, you'd typically need to analyze the data or context in which "m-sides" are being produced.
-
Linear (Option A): If the production of m-sides increases at a constant rate over time, you would see a straight line when plotting the quantity produced against time. This would mean that for each unit of time, a consistent number of m-sides is being produced.
-
Non-linear (Option B): If the production rate changes over time—either increasing or decreasing, or if it follows a different pattern—this would result in a curve rather than a straight line. For example, if the production starts slow, accelerates, and then levels off, this would be considered a non-linear relationship.
Without specific data or context, we cannot definitively say whether it is linear or non-linear. However, if you were to provide more information about the production process or data trends, it would be easier to assess.
