To determine whether each equation is linear or nonlinear and whether it is a function or not, we can analyze each one step by step.
-
Equation: (y + 7) = 3(x - 2)
- Linear/Nonlinear: This is a linear equation because it can be rewritten in the form \(y = mx + b\). Rearranging gives us \(y = 3x - 6 - 7\) or \(y = 3x - 13\).
- Function/Not a Function: This is a function because for each x-value there is exactly one y-value.
-
Equation: 25 = x² + y²
- Linear/Nonlinear: This is a nonlinear equation because it describes a circle (implicit form), which is not a straight line.
- Function/Not a Function: This is not a function because for some x-values, there are two corresponding y-values (one positive and one negative).
Here’s how you can summarize this information:
| Equation | Linear | Nonlinear | Function | Not a Function | |---------------------------------|----------------|----------------|--------------------|---------------------| | (y + 7) = 3(x - 2) | Yes | | Yes | | | 25 = x² + y² | | Yes | | Yes |
