A linear equation in n-dimensional space is of the form
a1x1 + a2x2 + ... + anxn + c = 0 where the ai are numerical constants and the xi are variables. The equation represents a straight line in n-dimensional space.
A non-linear equation is one in which one or more of the xi have a power other than 1. The equation will represent a curve.
A linear system is one in which you will get the same result if you change an input by the same amount - from whatever starting level. Otherwise the system is non-linear.

Is y-83 plus x7 linear or nonlinear?
linear
Is y equals 9x3 - 8 linear or nonlinear?
This is non-linear
Is 6 linear or nonlinear?
6 is neither linear nor non-linear. It is just a number.
What does nonlinear and linear mean?
Linear means anything that forms a straight line. Nonlinear means the opposite. Something that doesn't form a straight line.
Is 5xto the second power plus xto the sixth power equals 12 linear or nonlinear?
Nonlinear
What common characteristics do linear and nonlinear equations have?
Generally, both types of equation contain an equals sign and some combination of numbers and/or variables. That is the only thing I can think of that is common between all types of nonlinear and linear equations.
Is this equation linear or nonlinear y0?
linear (A+)
Is the function y8x linear or nonlinear?
linear
Why you mention diode is a nonlinear device and transistor is a linear device?
since the diode shows its characteristics in a non linearly it is called as nonlinear element since the transistor shows its characteristics in a linear way it s called as linear element Transistors are typically operated in their linear region (such as when used in amplifier circuits), or as switches (where you will in general ignore the nonlinearity of the transistor). Transistors are typically DC biased to operate in this linear region. Diodes are not biased in this way. Strictly speaking, both are nonlinear devices, although transistors can be used in their linear operation region, while diodes are not.
Is y-83 plus x7 linear or nonlinear?
linear
What is Linear and nonlinear elements of a network?
Linear elements :In an electric circuit, a linear element is an electrical element with a linear relationship between current andvoltage. Resistors are the most common example of a linear element; other examples include capacitors,inductors, and transformers.Nonlinear Elements :A nonlinear element is one which does not have a linear input/output relation. In a diode, for example, the current is a non-linear function of the voltage.Most semiconductor devices have non-linear characteristics.
