Select Linear or Nonlinear for each function.

Question

Function Linear Nonlinear
y = 15

y = 11 + 5x

y=3−x3

Answer 1

Here are the classifications for each function:

Function | Linear | Nonlinear ----------------------|----------|------------ y = 15 | Linear | y = 11 + 5x | Linear | y = 3 − x³ | | Nonlinear

• y = 15 is a constant function, which is linear.
• y = 11 + 5x is in the form of a linear equation (y = mx + b).
• y = 3 − x³ is a cubic function, which is nonlinear.
