Answer:
The table does not show a linear function
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\text{The formula of a slope:}\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\text{From the table we have:}\\\\(5,\ 24),\ (10,\ 21),\ (15,\ 17),\ (20,\ 13)\\\\\text{Check}\\\\\dfrac{21-24}{10-5}=\dfrac{-3}{5}=-\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\\dfrac{17-21}{15-10}=\dfrac{-4}{5}=-\dfrac{4}{5}\\\\-\dfrac{3}{5}\neq-\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex]
