Linear equations are a small minority of functions.
They are not. A vertical line is not a function so all linear equations are not functions. And all functions are not linear equations.
Most functions are not like linear equations.
A linear equation is a specific type of function that represents a straight line on a graph. While all linear equations are functions, not all functions are linear equations. Functions can take many forms, including non-linear ones that do not result in a straight line on a graph. Linear equations, on the other hand, follow a specific form (y = mx + b) where the x variable has a coefficient and the equation represents a straight line.
Cubic functions and linear functions are both polynomial functions, meaning they can be expressed using algebraic equations. Each type has a defined degree, with linear functions being of degree one and cubic functions being of degree three. Both types can exhibit similar behaviors, such as having real roots and being continuous and smooth. Additionally, they can both represent relationships between variables, but cubic functions can model more complex relationships due to their ability to have multiple turning points.
Functions and linear equations are the same in that they both deal with x and y coordinates and points on a graph but have differences in limitations, appearance and purpose. Often, functions give you the value of either x or y, but linear equations ask to solve for both x and y.

Linear equations are always functions.
Linear equations are a tiny subset of functions. Linear equations are simple, continuous functions.

yes yes No, vertical lines are not functions
Linear equations can be written as y = mx + b. Any other function would be non-linear. Some linear equations are: y = 3x y = 2 y = -2x + 4 y = 3/4x - 0.3 Some non-linear functions are: f(x) = x2 y = sqrt(x) f(x) = x3 + x2 - 2
A system of linear equations is two or more simultaneous linear equations. In mathematics, a system of linear equations (or linear system) is a collection of linear equations involving the same set of variables.

Assuming you work with two variables (like x and y) only: if the graph is a vertical line, e.g. x = 5, then it is not a function. Otherwise it is.
