No, for two reasons:
First, no equation has an axis at all; only the graph of an equation does.
Second, variables x and y are common yet arbitrary examples for variables representing a value from the equation's domain -x- or image set -y. The graph of a function for speed of a bullet over time, for example, would have a speed and a time axis, maybe labelled s and t, respectively.

How do you find a linear equation?
You have to solve it or if the answer is provided to you look at the y axis which is the one on the right of the graph. If the numbers form a pattern then its linear if there not... Well you can figure that out. It works for me most of the time and on a test one of five was wrong on this method.
What are examples of linear equations in daily life?
A linear equation is an equation that can be written in the form: y=mx+b. An equation in this form can be graphed on a x/y coordinate plane, and the slope (m) can NOT be a vertical line, additionally it must pass the vertical line test; if a vertical line is drawn, no more than one y point may correspond to any one x point on the graph. The slope produced must be a line, so it must follow that the change in y is constant to the change in x. Filling up a bath tub w/ water. The amount of water in the tub (graphed along the y-axis) and the amount of time that passes (graphed on x-axis) is constant. Slope (m) is stated to be the volume over time, which would be let's say 5 gallons per minute (y axis / x axis) (rise over run) Walking a constant speed to school. Distance is y axis, time is x axis. Slope would be distance over time. If you move 2 meters per second, for 2 minutes (120 seconds) then this would produce a linear equation. MANY examples in everyday life can be graphed as a linear function, but the important qualification is that whatever corresponds to the y axis, such as volume or distance, is constant relative to your x axis, most commonly time (seconds, minutes, hours). However, in both my examples it's only linear if the change in volume/distance is CONSTANT over the change in time. So, if you fill up the bathtub for 2 minutes, turn it off, then turn it back on, this is not linear. Same goes for walking to school, if you walk at 2 meters per second, then speed up to 4 meters per second, then slow down to 1 meters per second, this is NOT a linear equation or linear graph because the change in y over the change in x is not constant anymore, it's variable.

No, day goes on the x axis and time goes on the y axis.

How can a single body have multiple motions?
Basically, a body can only have one motion at a time. However:* The movement can change over time. * This motion can be expressed as the sum of other motions, for example, movement along the x-axis, the y-axis, and the z-axis. * If the object is rotating, it's usually convenient to express the movement as a combination of linear movement (of the center of mass) and of a rotation.

What pattern repeats every time Earth rotates one time on its axis?
Light and dark, day and night, does, on most of the Earth but not everywhere.
How long does it take the earth to spin on its axis if the spin rate is 1670 kilometer and the circumference of the equator is 40000 kilometer?
Cannot be determined with the values you give. A spin rate cannot be defined by a linear dimension, You need to specify the angular dimension and a time value. or the peripheral speed which could be a linear and a time value.
