Whats the difference between a non linear equation and a linear equation?

A Linear equation can be defined as the equation having the maximum only one degree. A Nonlinear equation can be defined as the equation having the maximum degree 2 or more than 2. A linear equation forms a straight line on the graph. A nonlinear equation forms a curve on the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

total income = price of one ticket   *   number of tickets sold

  y                 =     4                                   x

so the equation is y=4x     with x≥0   because number of tickets sold can not be negative

thus the equation is a semi -line with an end point at

(0,0)

passing through :

x=1     y=4(1) = 4   so through (1,4)
