This table shows a constant rate of change. :

This table shows an increasing relationship. :

This table shows a proportional relationship. :

This table represents a function. :

This table shows a linear relationship. :

Answer 1

Let's evaluate each statement based on the table provided:

1. This table shows a constant rate of change.
   False
   The differences between the y-values (1, 4, 9, 16, 25) are not constant; they are increasing (3, 5, 7, 9), indicating a variable rate of change.

2. This table shows an increasing relationship.
   True
   As the x-values increase, the y-values also increase.

3. This table shows a proportional relationship.
   False
   A proportional relationship means the ratio of y to x is constant, which is not the case here (for example, 4/2 = 2, 9/3 = 3, etc. are not equal).

4. This table represents a function.
   True
   Each x-value has exactly one corresponding y-value, satisfying the definition of a function.

5. This table shows a linear relationship.
   False
   The relationship is not linear; the y-values do not change at a constant rate (the increases are not consistent). Instead, they represent a quadratic relationship (y = x²).

To summarize:

1. False
2. True
3. False
4. True
5. False
