elimination
A, they are both linear
linear equations are sometimes given by y=mx+b, equation A, if graphed, produces a hyperbola which is not linear so statement A is false

B they areboth non-linear
equationb is linear so this is false

C equation a is non-linear and equation b is linear
true
C is the answer
