hey

OpenStudy (dan815):

one is the equation of a line and the other is the equation of a parabola

OpenStudy (dan815):

when you see something like u know the equation of a line y=mx+b

OpenStudy (dan815):

for the equation of a line basically the most important thing to notice is that x is to the power of 1 this is what we call "line"ar functions when x is to the power of something more than 1 its called non linear function

OpenStudy (dan815):

a few more things to notice is the y intercept is different

OpenStudy (dan815):

u can calculate the x intercept and see if that is different too

OpenStudy (dan815):

is this all making sense?
