The following function is nonlinear

Answer:

[tex]f(x)=\left \{ {{|4-x^2|}\ \ \ \ if\ x<2 \atop {x}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ if\ x\geq 2} \right[/tex]

A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The given graph break at point x=2. It would be piece wise function.

  • For left side of x=2, graphs is parabolic and y is always positive.

[tex]y=|4-x^2|\ \ \ \ if\ \ x<2[/tex]

  • For right side of x=2, graphs is straight line and slope is positive.

[tex]y=x\ \ \ \ if\ \ x\geq 2[/tex]

Now we write as piece wise function.

[tex]f(x)=\left \{ {{|4-x^2|}\ \ \ \ if\ x<2 \atop {x}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ if\ x\geq 2} \right[/tex]

The given graph is combination o parabola and straight line which breaks at x=2
