Answer:

Non-linear

Explanation:

y = 10/x is non-linear!

Because a linear equation is an equation of a straight line, which means the degree of a linear equation must be 0. In this case, the degree of variable y is 1; the degrees of the variables in the equation violate the linear equation definition, which means that the equation is not linear.
