If the variable(s) in the constraint only have power 1 then it is linear. If any of the variables are squared, cubed, square rooted, etc, then it is non-linear.

How do you figure out linear?
what is 20 linear feet in quantity
Can a linear programming problem have multiple solutions?
Yes. If the feasible region has a [constraint] line that is parallel to the objective function.

What is the difference between a numerical constraint and a geometric constraint?
Dealing with engineering or CAD, a geometric constraint deals with constraints such as parallel or perpendicularity. A numeric constraint deals with distances and size. Width, length, and depth are examples of these.--------Geometric constraints are constant, non-numerical relationships between the parts of a geometric figure. Numeric constraints are number values, or algebraic equations that are used to control the size or location of a geometric figure :)

What scale factor doubles the size of a figure?
Depends what you mean by the "size" of the figure.To double the linear dimensions of the figure ===> Multiply the linear dimensions by 2.To double the area of the figure ===> Multiply the linear dimensions by sqrt(2). (1.4142)
What type of linear programming can be found by graphical methods?
A linear programming question with two variables. Problems with three can be solved if there is a constraint that reduces them to effectively two variables. Linear programming with 3 variables, using 3-d graphs is possible but not recommended.
What is linear symmetry?
A figure has linear symmetry when after reflection, the image looks exactly the same as the original
How do you figure sixty two linear inches?
62 linear inches is the same as a length of 62 inches. You don't need to figure, just get a measuring tape!
What is the minimum number of constraints a linear programming problem can have?
One. To be a (non-trivial) linear programming problem both the objective function and the constraints must be linear. If there were no constraints then the objective function could be made arbitrarily large or arbitrarily small. (Think of a line in two-space.) By adding one constraint the objective function's value can be limited to a finite value.
What is a geometric constraint?
It is a non-numerical relationships between the parts of a geometric figure. Examples include parallelism, perpendicularity, and concentricity.
How do you figure linear footage of circle?
