Answer:

Non-linear

Explanation:

Since one of the terms has an exponent of 3, this is a cubic equation, a third degree equation. It is a curve and therefore, NOT a linear equation.

Answer:

nonlinear

Explanation:

In a linear equation, there are no multiplications of variables by variables.

x³ means x × x × x, so there is a multiplication of variables in the equation, and the equation is not linear.
