  1. Check Slope Set A: To determine if a set of ordered pairs represents a linear function, we need to check if the difference in yy-values divided by the difference in xx-values (the slope) is constant between every pair of points.
  2. Check Slope Set B: Let's start with set A: {(1,0),(2,3),(5,6),(9,9)}\{(-1,0), (2,3), (5,6), (9,9)\}. Calculate the slope between the first two points: slope = y2y1x2x1=302(1)=33=1\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{3 - 0}{2 - (-1)} = \frac{3}{3} = 1.
  3. Check Slope Set C: Now calculate the slope between the second and third points: slope = (63)/(52)=3/3=1(6 - 3) / (5 - 2) = 3 / 3 = 1.
  4. Check Slope Set D: Calculate the slope between the third and fourth points: slope = (96)/(95)=3/4(9 - 6) / (9 - 5) = 3 / 4. The slope is not the same as before, so set A does not represent a linear function.
  5. Check Slope Set D: Calculate the slope between the third and fourth points: slope=9695=34\text{slope} = \frac{9 - 6}{9 - 5} = \frac{3}{4}. The slope is not the same as before, so set A does not represent a linear function.Now let's check set B: {(2,9),(1,6),(1,3),(3,0)}\{(-2,9), (-1,6), (1,3), (3,0)\}. Calculate the slope between the first two points: slope=691(2)=31=3\text{slope} = \frac{6 - 9}{-1 - (-2)} = \frac{-3}{1} = -3.
  6. Check Slope Set D: Calculate the slope between the third and fourth points: slope = (96)/(95)=3/4(9 - 6) / (9 - 5) = 3 / 4. The slope is not the same as before, so set A does not represent a linear function.Now let's check set B: {(2,9),(1,6),(1,3),(3,0)}\{(-2,9), (-1,6), (1,3), (3,0)\}. Calculate the slope between the first two points: slope = (69)/(1(2))=(3)/1=3(6 - 9) / (-1 - (-2)) = (-3) / 1 = -3.Calculate the slope between the second and third points: slope = (36)/(1(1))=(3)/2(3 - 6) / (1 - (-1)) = (-3) / 2. The slope is not the same as before, so set B does not represent a linear function.

Calculate the slope between the second and third points: slope=361(1)=32\text{slope} = \frac{3 - 6}{1 - (-1)} = \frac{-3}{2}. The slope is not the same as before, so set B does not represent a linear function. Next, let's check set C: {(0,5),(3,2),(6,1),(9,4)}\{(0,5), (3,2), (6,-1), (9,-4)\}. Calculate the slope between the first two points: slope=2530=33=1\text{slope} = \frac{2 - 5}{3 - 0} = \frac{-3}{3} = -1.
