algebra help linear functions
What similarities and differences do you see between functions and linear equations?

this is a second discussion in my algebra class and I do not understand It came in two parts can anybody help me?What similarities and differences do you see between functions and linear equations? Are all linear equations functions?Is there an instance when a linear equation is not a function? Support your answer.Create an equation of a nonlinear function and provide two inputs

ALMOST all linear equations are or can be put in the form y = something done to x. Those all represent functions y(x).

However, the equation x = 3 (or any other constant) is NOT a function y(x), because for one x there can be more than one y (in fact, infinitely many).

It IS a function x(y), but that’s probably not what you’re supposed to notice. ;)
