If the equation is 2y-4x = -12 then the intercept is -6.
It is a linear equation. The highest power of x in the equation is 1 (3x1-4=12) so its "degree" is 1, and equations of "degree 1" are called linear equations.
6x+5k=12
-4a = 48 a = -12
It is a linear equation in a single variable, x.
Linear means to the first degree. (variables are to the first power only) For example, a linear equation: Ax+B=C or 5x+2=12
It is a simple linear equation in a single variable, n. And, in case you are wondering, n = 12.
It is one linear equation in two unknown variables: e and a.
If: 12 = 9x+3 Then: 12-3 = 9x And: 9 = 9x So: x =1
An equation of one variable and of first order (i.e., its highest power is one) is called a Linear equation in one variable.Such an equation has only one solution. A solution is also called the 'root' of the given equation.An equation of one variable and of first order (i.e., its highest power is one) is called a Linear equation. Such an equation has only one solution. A solution is also called the 'root' of the given equation.Solving linear equations in one variableFor Example Solve X/4 - (X-3)/6 = 1Solution:Multiplying throughout by the LCM of the denominators (which is 12):3x - 2 (x - 3) = 123x - 2x + 6 = 12x = 12 - 6x = 6
If you mean: 2y = -4x-12 then y = -2x-6 and -6 is the y intercept
To solve a linear equation using subtraction, first isolate the variable by subtracting the same value from both sides of the equation. For example, if you have the equation ( x + 5 = 12 ), you would subtract 5 from both sides to get ( x = 7 ). This process allows you to determine the value of the variable while maintaining the equality of the equation.
y=mx+b y=4/1(8)+12 y=44
