Differentiating Linear and Nonlinear Functions

What is the main difference between linear and non-linear functions?

• Linear functions have graphs that are circles, while non-linear functions are lines.

• Linear functions have graphs that are parabolas, while non-linear functions are lines.

• Linear functions have graphs that are curves, while non-linear functions are straight lines.

• Linear functions have graphs that are lines or parts of lines, while non-linear functions do not.
