How do you find out if a problem is linear or exponential?
You find out if a problem is linear or exponential by looking at the degree or the highest power; if the degree or the highest power is 1 or 0, the equation is linear. But if the degree is higher than 1 or lower than 0, the equation is exponential.

What is the answer for y equals 3x plus 1?
y = 3x + 1 is a linear equation - it is the equation for a graph of a straight line that crosses the y axis at 1 and the x axis at -1/3, and has a gradient (slope) of 3.
How do you figure out if an equation is a linear equation?
An equation is linear if the highest power of the unknown in the equation is 1for example an equation with just a variable to the power one such as x, y and so on is linear but one with x2, y2 and above is not linear
How do you find the y intercept of a linear relationship from an equation?
plug in a 0 for the "x" value of the equation, and solve it :D
What are linear formulas?
A linear equation is y = mx + c where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept. Linear equations are always graphically shown as a straight line, regardless of the gradient or the y-intercept.
What is a positive linear relationship?
A linear relationship is one where your equation forms a straight line. A positive linear relationship is one where this line has a positive gradient.
What is the slope of the line given by the equation y 11x 5?
y = 11x + 5 The slope/gradient of this equation is 11. The slope/gradient can easily been seen in a linear equation: it is simply the co-efficient of x
Meaning of m in mathematics?
well i am assunming you mean 'm' in linear graphs. it means the gradient in the linear equation y=mx+c.
What is the gradient of x 2y1?
The gradient of a linear equation is also known as slope. Slope is the (Change in Y)/(Change in X). Luckily there is a simple way to find out the slope in a simple linear equation. A simple linear equation can be written as: y = mx + b where m = slope (gradient) and b = y-intercept I assume your equation is x = 2y + 1. This may look like it fits the equation above but it does not. The equation needs to be solved for y. x = 2y + 1 (Subtract 1 from both sides) x - 1 = 2y (Divide both sides by 2) x/2 - 1/2 = y Now the equation is in the proper form. y = 1/2x - 1/2 Looking at the first equation: m = slope = 1/2. The slope (or gradient) is 1/2
How do you find an equation of a linear function?
how do we find linear feet or inche
What does m represent in your equation?
If you are talking about linear graphs, m refers to the gradient (aka slope or rate of change).
How to calculate the gradient from the non linear graph?
Draw a tangent to the curve at the point where you need the gradient and find the gradient of the line by using gradient = up divided by across
Find the slope of the line for the following linear equation 5x plus 2y equals -10?
5x + 2y = -10 general line equation form is: y= mx + c so 2y = -10 - 5x y = -2.5x - 5 m refers to gradient and c is offset on the y axis so gradient is -2.5 (gradient means slope)
What is the slope of the line that has the equation y4x 2?
y = 4x + 2 It has a slope (gradient) or 4. The slope/gradient of a linear function is simply the number in front of the x when the equation is in the form y=mx+b. (the coefficient of x).
How do you find the gradient of a line with the equation y equals 3x plus 2?
An equation such as y = mx + c is said to be in standard form. From such an equation, Gradient = coefficient of x = 3
How do you find the gradient of y equals 2x plus 3?
It's 2. your equation is y=mx+b, so the gradient, or slope, is the "m" in the equation.
