Is an exponential function linear?
No. An exponential function is not linear. A very easy way to understand what is and what is not a linear function is in the word, "linear function." A linear function, when graphed, must form a straight line.P.S. The basic formula for any linear function is y=mx+b. No matter what number you put in for the m and b variables, you will always make a linear function.
What is the rate of change of a linear function?
It will just be the gradient of the function, which should be constant in a linear function.
What is a function that forms a line when graphed called?
It is a continuous function. If the line is a straight line, it is a linear function.
Is the function y8x linear or nonlinear?
linear
Is the inverse of a linear function not a function?
The inverse of a linear function is always a linear function. There are a few ways to approach this.To think about it, you can imagine flipping the x and y axes. Essentially this equates to turning the graph of the linear function on its side to reveal the new inverse function which is still a straight line.More rigorously, the linear function y = ax + b has the inverse equation x = (1/a)y - (b/a). This is a linear function in y.
