How can you tell by looking only at the equation of a function with no graph that it is nonlinear?

To be linear, there should only be constants, and variables with constant coefficients. No powers of variables, or numbers raised to the power of a variable, or any other nonlinear function such as log, ln, sin, cos, tan, cosh, etc.

How can you tell by looking at the graph of a function that it is nonlinear?
A linear function would be represented by a straight line graph, so if it's not a straight line, it's nonlinear
What is a nonlinear in math?
when you represent any equation in a graph it is said to be linear.Accordin to me , not having a definite equation , is said to be non-linear.
What does a linear equation graph look like?
A linear function is a function whose graph is a straight line.
How can you define when the Graph is Function or not?
If a graph is a function, it will always have y=... or x=... (or anoher letter equals an equation) for example y= 3x-12 is a function

What is the equation of a nonlinear graph if a is greater than 5?
There are infinitely many options. The equation could be a polynomial of degree greater than 1, or it could be a power function, a log function or any combination of these with trig functions. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that there is no clue in the question as to what a stands for.
How do you use nonlinear graph in sentence?
A nonlinear graph doesn't make a straight line.
Is a graph that consists of a single point the graph of a function and can you write the equation of such a function?

Without using a graph how can you tell if an equation is a function or relation?
Verticle line test man. If it intersects two points it is its not a function. if it hits one point it is a function. and im currently looking up to see how it is a equation...

What is linear function?
A function is an equation that is a straight line when plotted on a graph.
What definition for a nonlinear graph?
a graph that does not have a straight line
When you are given a graph how can you come up with a rational function equation?
You cannot, necessarily. Given a graph of the tan function, you could not.
How do you determine if a relation represents a function?
If the function is a straight line equation that passes through the graph once, then that's a function, anything on a graph is a relation!
