Answer:

  C. quadratic function; quadratic term: 6x^2; linear term: x; constant term: −12

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is "quadratic" when the degree (exponent) of the highest-degree term is 2. The "quadratic" term is the one with degree 2.

The "linear" term is the one that has degree 1.

The "constant" term has no variable.

In the quadratic function ...

  f(x) = 6x^2 +x -12

the quadratic term is 6x^2

the linear term is x

the constant is -12

Answer:  The answer is either letter B or letter C

C. quadratic function; quadratic term: 6x2; linear term: x; constant term: −12

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the degree of the function to determine if linear.  f ( x ) =  6 x 2 + x − 12  is not a linear function
