A linear function is a line where a quadratic function is a curve. In general, y=mx+b is linear and y=ax^2+bx+c is quadratic.

What is the difference between a linear quadratic and a quadratic quadratic?
There is no quadratic equation that is 'linear'. There are linear equations and quadratic equations. Linear equations are equations in which the degree of the variable is 1, and quadratic equations are those equations in which the degree of the variable is 2.
What are the similarities between quadratic function and linear function?
Both are polynomials. They are continuous and are differentiable.
What is the difference between linear and quadratic equations?
A linear equation has the form of mx + b, while a quadratic equation's form is ax2+bx+c. Also, a linear equation's graph forms a line, while a quadratic equation's graph forms a parabola.
What is the difference between rational function and linear function?
t is the diffrence between a rational funcrion and a linerar and polynomial function
What is A Quadratic Sequence?
A Quadratic Sequence is when the difference between two terms changes each step. However the secondary difference (the difference between each primary difference.) is always the same. E.G. 6 9 14 21 +3 +5 +7 primary difference.(changes) +2 +2 secondary difference(stays the same) this is not a linear sequence in which the primary difference stays the same. another way to visualise this is on a graph. if you plotted a quadratic sequence onto a graph there would be a curve. a linear sequence would be a straight line. hope this helps.

When can you use linear quadratic functions?
There are linear functions and there are quadratic functions but I am not aware of a linear quadratic function. It probably comes from the people who worked on the circular square.
What is quadratic linear function?
It is a quadratic equation that normally has two solutions
Difference between linear consumption function and non linear consumption function?
I have no idea. However, in theory there is a difference.
What is the relation quadratic equation to linear equation?
The derivative of a quadratic function is always linear (e.g. the rate of change of a quadratic increases or decreases linearly).
Is throwing a ball a linear function?
No. Throwing a ball is a quadratic function.
What is the difference between linear and quadratic equations?
A linear equation has the form of mx + b, while a quadratic equation's form is ax2+bx+c. Also, a linear equation's graph forms a line, while a quadratic equation's graph forms a parabola.
Is 3x plus 27 equals 8 a quadratic function?
No it is a linear one. X^2 = quadratic, x = linear. So if the equation doesn't have an x squared, then it is not quadratic.
What is the difference between rational function and linear function?
t is the diffrence between a rational funcrion and a linerar and polynomial function
What is the difference between a linear function and a quadratic equation?
A linear equation describes a line like 2x+1=y. If you were to graph that equation, then it would give you a line. A quadratic equation is like x^2+2x+1=y. Graphing this equation would give you a U shaped graph called a parabola.
Difference between function and objective function?
The linear function Z=c1x1+c2x2+c3x3+..........+cnxn which is to minimized or maximized is called Objective Function of general Linear Programming Problem.The innequalities of LPP are called constraints.
