y = -2.5 is a equation. And solution to the equation is finding the value of the variable. If we see the equation y is already equal to -2.5 which is the solution to the equation.
That makes no sense, there is no y in the equation so y cannot equal anything.
Set 'x' equal to zero, and solve the remaining equation for 'y'.
y=5
an nonlinear equation can be y=3x m dose not equal 7
That is not an equation because there is no equal sign. In order for y to be a function of x, y must equal the rest of the values. So assuming that your expression was equal to 0. To make y a function of x, add 3y to both sides and then divide the equation by 3. y=5/3x-50
-- Take the equation. -- Say to yourself, "At the x-intercept, y=0". Set 'y' equal to zero, solve the equation for 'x', and you have the x-intercept. -- Take the original equation again. -- Say to yourself, "At the y-intercept, x=0". Set 'x' equal to zero, solve the equation for 'y', and you have the y-intercept.
The y-intercept is 0 and the slope is 1.
Simply put, an expression does not need an equal sign, while an equation does. Equation: x+y=z Expression: x+y
Sorry, but it is impossible to solve this equation by itself. Since you have two unknowns, you need two equation.
