有限数学 例

The word linear is used for a straight line. A linear function is a function of a straight line, which means that the degree of a linear function must be ${\displaystyle 0}$ or ${\displaystyle 1}$. In this case, The degree of ${\displaystyle f\left(x\right)=-x^5}$ is ${\displaystyle 5}$, which makes the function a nonlinear function.
