As a retired teacher of mathematics, this question made me smile!
As I often told my middle school students, "You will, probably, only need 10% of the mathematics we teach, in school, to be successful in life. However, only your life can tell you which 10%."
Having said this, linear equations:
1) Would enable you to determine where two lines intersect. (Useful in construction)
2) Find the break even point in marketing.
3) Determine how long it would take to reach almost any goal that could be expressed as a time dependent equation.

What would you need to help you with it comes to solving equations?
When solving equations remember that whatever operations are performed on the LHS of the equation must be performed on its RHS to keep the equation in balance.
Why do you use the addition property of equality?
Why? - Mainly to help in solving equations.
What areas of math do you need the most help with?
Non-linear partial differential equations. Are you offering to help me? If not, why did you ask?
When solving systems of equations how do you determine what method to use?
if you are good at math, you would know. I'm not being mean, but sometimes it takes a little help from an adult.
Whats the difference between a linear equation and a system of linear equations?
Quite simply, the latter is a group of the former.A system of linear equations is several linear equations taken together, each using the same group of unknowns. Usually, such a system provides one linear equation for each unknown (x, y, z, et al) that must be found (more complex systems can exist, though). You can use and manipulate these linear equations as you would a single linear equation to help solve for the unknowns. One way is to reduce all but one of the unknowns so that each can be expressed in terms of the remaining unknown and then solve for the remaining unknown which would in turn give you the others.

How do you solve two-step equations with fractions?
Equations can be tricky, and solving two step equations is an important step beyond solving equations in one step. Solving two-step equations will help introduce students to solving equations in multiple steps, a skill necessary in Algebra I and II. To solve these types of equations, we use additive and multiplicative inverses to isolate and solve for the variable. Solving Two Step Equations Involving Fractions This video explains how to solve two step equations involving fractions.

Help with my geometry homework It's about solving equations with two variables One of my problems is y 2x5?
y = 10
How does graphing a linear system help you verify the results of solving a linear system algebraically?
You see the point the two lines cross, if they do. This is the solution to the system since it is the values of (x,y) that are on both lines The solution is a sytems is those points, if any, (x,y) that satisfy both equations. That is the same as saying they are on both lines. If you graph the equations, this is the same as saying the points that are in the intersection of the lines. This is why parallel lines represent a system with no solution and if two equations are the same line there is an infinite number of solutions.
How matrices used in engineering?
If you have a system, which can be expressed as a set of linear equations, then you can utilize matrices to help solve it. One example is an electrical circuit which uses linear devices (example are constant voltage sources and resistive loads). To find the current through each device, a set of linear equations is derived.
Why did John Atanasoff and Clifford Berry built the computer in 1942 at Iowa state University?
Solving simultaneous equationsThey invented the first electronic computer to enable solving multiple simultaneous equations far more quickly than the manual method.To help find the answer to mathmaticle equations
Which of the following equations has the solution set 0?
It would help very much if the "following equations" actually DID follow!
Is there software or an app that can translate mathematical equations or symbols into simple to understand words such that the delta symbol would be translated into the word change?
No, not really any good ones. Mathematical equations are simple to understand by their very nature. If you're having trouble solving or understanding equations there are a few online solvers that can help you by solving equations step by step. +++ Translating like that risks confusion as well as pure clutter. A useful and common way alternative to the Delta symbol is "d", as in "dy/dx", where it shows the change in value is actually the "difference between" the start and end values of x or y.
