A linear equation can have only one zero and that is the value of the variable for which the equation is true.

Is a linear equation the same as a function?

No a linear equation are not the same as a linear function. The linear function is written as Ax+By=C. The linear equation is f{x}=m+b.


What happens if there are no zeros in a quadratic function?

Whether or not a function has zeros depends on the domain over which it is defined.For example, the linear equation 2x = 3 has no zeros if the domain is the set of integers (whole numbers) but if you allow rational numbers then x = 1.5 is a zero.A quadratic function such as x^2 = 2 has no rational zeros, but it does have irrational zeros which are sqrt(2) and -sqrt(2).Similarly, a quadratic equation need not have real zeros. It will have zeros if the domain is extended to the complex field.In the coordinate plane, a quadratic without zeros will either be wholly above the horizontal axis or wholly below it.


Is this equation linear or nonlinear y0?

linear (A+)

a linear equation


Examples of zeros of a linear function?

The zero of a linear function in algebra is the value of the independent variable (x) when the value of the dependent variable (y) is zero. Linear functions that are horizontal do not have a zero because they never cross the x-axis. Algebraically, these functions have the form y = c, where c is a constant. All other linear functions have one zero.For example, if your equation is 3x + 11y = 6, you would substitute zero for y, the term 11y would drop out of the equation and the equation would become 3x = 6x = 2
