A linear equation is defined as an equation that contains only the first power of the unknown quantity.
For example, 5x - 3 = 7 where "x" is the unknown quantity is a linear equation.
If an equation contains an unknown quantity having a higher power than 1, then the equation ceases to be a linear equation.
For example, 3x2 + 5x + 7 = 0 is a non linear equation known as a quadratic equation, because the unknown quantity "x" has a power of 2.
Similarly, equations containing unknowns with higher powers such as x3, x7, x12 are all non linear equations.

Is the equation 3s equals 2t linear or nonlinear?
A linear equation has no higher powers than 1. This is linear.
Is there any system which involves one nonlinear equation and one linear equation?
Yes
What is difference between linear and nonlinear control system?
linear system is like a chemistry equation or math equation where on both sides it must balance. Nonlinear is a math equation or physics that does not appear to have a direct answer just like chaos theory. lulu254ever
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.
Is y equals x minus 2 a nonlinear equation?

Is this equation linear or nonlinear y0?
linear (A+)
Is the equation 3s equals 2t linear or nonlinear?
A linear equation has no higher powers than 1. This is linear.
Is this equation linear or nonlinear Y equals -3x -2?
-1
Is y -3x - 2 linear or nonlinear?
Without an equality sign the given expression is not an equation
Is this equation linear or nonlinear y2x?
If you mean y = 2x then it is a straight line equation
Is there any system which involves one nonlinear equation and one linear equation?
Yes
What is a non-linear equation?
A nonlinear equation does not produce a straight line and the exponent is to the second power or more. x square plus 3y =5 is an example of a nonlinear equation.
