Unfortunately, the browser used by Answers.com for posting questions is incapable of accepting mathematical symbols. This means that we cannot see the mathematically critical parts of the question. We are, therefore unable to determine what exactly the question is about and so cannot give a proper answer to your question. However, I suspect that the answer is in the negative.

However, it appears to be unlikely.
Look for points where the denominator is equal to zero. In other words, solve the equation: denominator = 0
If you mean a number subtracted by 5 then your formula, or linear equation is f(x)=x-5 Meaning if the value x is the input of the function, then the output is x-5. Example: f(17)=17-5=12 So f(17)=12 Make sense?
Linear sums mean in a line. so, for example; 3+2=5 is linear. 3+ 2 _ 5 is column addition. Hope this helps. (I know it's clumsy it's hard on the computer!)
-5
A linear equation corresponds to a line, and a linear inequality corresponds to a region bounded by a line. Consider the equation y = x-5. This could be graphed as a line going through (0,-5), (1,-4), (2,-3), and so on. The inequality y > x-5 would be the region above that line.
