In the linear equation is the variable for the y intercept b or c ie y equals mx plus b or y equals mx plus b?
in the equation: y=mx+b , the y-intercept is represented by "b".
What is the name for the linear equation y equals mx plus b?
That is called slope - intercept form
Is y equals mx plus b an equation?
Yes.
Is y equals 13x linear?
The equation y = 13x is in the form "y = mx + b" (in this case, b is zero). Therefore, the equation is linear.
Is y equals mx plus b linear equation when b equals 0?
Yes. A linear equation is one in which the maximum power of a variable (usually x) is 1. In y = mx + b the x has a maximum power of 1. If b = 0, the equation becomes y = mx and x still has a maximum power of 1. The b is the y-intercept, ie it shifts the line up/down the y-axis and does not affect the shape of the graph, which stays a line: hence a linear equation.
In the linear equation is the variable for the y intercept b or c ie y equals mx plus b or y equals mx plus b?
in the equation: y=mx+b , the y-intercept is represented by "b".
The position of an object starting from rest is described by the equation x equals 0.5at2 where x and t are measured variables Determine a based on the equation y equals mx plus b?
X equals 0.5at squared is a quadratic equation. It describes a parabola. Y equals mx plus b is a linear equation. It describes a line. You cannot describe a parabola with a linear equation.
What is the name for the linear equation y equals mx plus b?
That is called slope - intercept form
The formula y equals mx plus b is known as?
A linear equation in the slope intercept form or the standard form.
Is 2x equals 3y plus 1 a linear equation?
Yes it is, since it can be represented in the form y = mx + b
Is y equals x2 plus 2 a linear equation?
No, y=x^2 + 2 is a quadratic equation. A linear equation is one in the form y=mx+b. A quadratic has a form y=ax^2+bx+c.
Is y equals mx plus b an equation?
Yes.
Is y equals 13x linear?
The equation y = 13x is in the form "y = mx + b" (in this case, b is zero). Therefore, the equation is linear.
What kind of equation is y equals mx plus b?
A straight line equation
Is y equals mx plus b linear equation when b equals 0?
Yes. A linear equation is one in which the maximum power of a variable (usually x) is 1. In y = mx + b the x has a maximum power of 1. If b = 0, the equation becomes y = mx and x still has a maximum power of 1. The b is the y-intercept, ie it shifts the line up/down the y-axis and does not affect the shape of the graph, which stays a line: hence a linear equation.
Is this equation linear or nonlinear y equals -3x-2?
-1
What is the term for y equals mx plus b?
It is the equation formula for a straight line equation.
