A linear equation is, basically, a line. An example is y=2x+3. They are commonly found in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis). A non-linear equation can be many things. Parabolas and exponential equations are not linear.

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+)
What is the definition of Simultaneous Linear Equations?
A system of linear equations is two or more simultaneous linear equations. In mathematics, a system of linear equations (or linear system) is a collection of linear equations involving the same set of variables.
How many solutions does the nonlinear system of equations graphed below have?
2
What is the classification of a system of equations?
The answer will depend on what kinds of equations: there are linear equations, polynomials of various orders, algebraic equations, trigonometric equations, exponential ones and logarithmic ones. There are single equations, systems of linear equations, systems of linear and non-linear equations. There are also differential equations which are classified by order and by degree. There are also partial differential equations.
