Answer:

1. nonlinear

2. nonlinear

3. nonlinear

4. linear

5. linear

6. nonlinear

I think that is correct

Explanation:

There is two ways you can do it.

1st . See if it is being multiplied, x cannot be the denominator, y cannot have a exponent and the x cannot be squared.

2nd - Use a graphing calculator and see if the line is straight, that is a linear equation and curved lines are nonlinear.
