Answer 5

A linear function has the following form. y = f(x) = a + bx.

Answer 6

non liner is not a line for example a parabola.

Answer 7

lol yea ik and there are ways you can tell its non linear

Answer 8

a liner is simply a line. ; )
figured it out

Answer 9

haha yeah

Answer 10

so i need an example like in numbers hmm... maybe i can fugure it out

Answer 11

a parabola has a x^2, liner functions are simple x

Answer 12

f(x,y) =ax+by+c [where a,b c are real numbers]

Answer 13

non linear function u can write any power on variables other than 1

Answer 14

thx guys i figured it out lemme post what im putting wait a sec plz

Answer 15

An example of a linear function would be y = 2x+1 because on a graph it turns out to be a straight line. An example of a non - linear function would be 4x2 + 2y - 1 = 0 because on a graph it would not look like a line so since it isn't like a straight line, which basically describes a linear function, then it is a NON - linear function, it is NOT linear.

Answer 16

correct

Answer 17

ugh why did it send that again

Answer 18

nevermind thanks again!!! :D
