Linear and nonlinear models are two types of mathematical functions that can be used to describe the relationships between variables. In this article, you will learn what they are, how they differ ...

Spread the loveLinear and nonlinear functions are the building blocks of algebra. They are essential to the understanding of graphs, equations, and the principles that govern the study of mathematics ...

However this is not the case with non-linear functions. A non-linear function does not have a constant slope. Consider the non-linear function shown below. What is the slope at some point such as P?

The graph of a non-linear function is a curved line. A curved line is a line whose direction constantly changes. A cautionary note: Economists are accustomed to designate all lines in graphs as curves ...

In the last lesson, we saw that the derivative was the rate of change and that the derivative of a straight line is a constant. Let's explore non-linear functions and their derivatives in this lesson!

This book deals mainly with linear and nonlinear parabolic equations and systems of second order. It first transforms the real forms of parabolic equations and systems into complex forms, and then ...

Nonlinear regression is a form of regression analysis in which data is fit to a model and then expressed as a mathematical function. Simple linear regression relates two variables (X and Y) with a ...
