no, it is not linear. 2/y means that there at least isn't going to be a y=0, also, this is just like the 1/x graph but inverted

Y = 2/(X+1)No; it is an inverse of a linear equation because it has a restricted domain, asymptotes, and the lack of continuity in the function.

2/y = x + 1 The fraction on the left side tells us, without getting too mathematical, that we have a fractional equation. The value of y can be any real number except for 0.  fdr84@hotmail.com
