A linear function is a function, or equation, that when graphed, will form a straight line.
The equation for a circle is a function in that it can be graphed and charted. One common equation is x^2 + y^2 = r^2.
As shown, the function has neither range nor domain.
(x + 5)(x - 2)x2 + 3x - 10this is your quadratic equation
The graph (on Cartesian coordinates) of a quadratic equation is a parabola.
The [ 2x + 1 ] represents a function of 'y' .
y=mx+b
Yes it can. A linear equation in the form of y=mx+b can always be graphed used the x and y intercepts.
You don't. An equation with two variables can be graphed as a line or a curve on x-y coordinates. When you do that, EVERY point on the line or curve satisfies the equation. You can't 'solve' it ... i.e. come up with unique values for 'x' and 'y' ... until you have another equation. It represents another line or curve on the graph, and the 'solution' represents the point (or points) where the graphs of the two equations intersect.
When a function is graphed, the dependent variable is usually measured along the y-axis. This is because y is the function of x.

If the function is a straight line equation that passes through the graph once, then that's a function, anything on a graph is a relation!
