Give an example of a nonlinear function. You can describe this function in one or more of the following ways: with a table, graph, or equation. Be sure to specify what are the inputs (the independent variable) and what are the outputs (the dependent variable). Then explain how you know your example is nonlinear

Aswimming pool has an input pump for filling the pool and an output pump for emptying the pool. the input pump can fill the pool in 3 hours, and the output pump can drain the pool in 5 hours. as you go to bed, the pool is full, but a neighbor’s kid turns on the output pump. at midnight, you awake to find the pool half empty. immediately, you turn on the input pump, but you are sleepy and forget to turn off the output pump. at what time will the pool become full?

Gabriel determined that his total cost would be represented by 2.5x + 2y – 2. his sister states that the expression should be x + x + 0.5x + y + y – 2. who is correct? explain.
