Non-linear. In linear equations, you don't divide a number by x.

Answer:

Non-linear

Explanation:

This equation represents a reciprocal function.

You can't divide by zero so it never passes the y-axis, therefore it cannot be linear.

The graph of this equation is attached below.

I hope this helps!!
