ANSWER

D, E and F

EXPLANATION

Linear functions have the form:

[tex]y=ax+b[/tex]

Where a can be a whole number or a fraction. It can be negative or positive. The same for b and also b can be zero:

[tex]D)7x\rightarrow a=7,b=0[/tex][tex]E)\frac{1}{4}x\rightarrow a=\frac{1}{4},b=0[/tex][tex]F)x+8\rightarrow a=1,b=8[/tex]

In the other options x is to the power of 2 (in option A), or to the power of -1 (option B) or to the power 1/2 (option C). To be a linear function, x has to have a power of 1.
