What is the coefficient of x in the equation 4y 5-x?
5
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 are quadratic equations?
In mathematics, a quadratic equation is a polynomial equation of the second degree. The general form is : where a≠ 0. (For if a = 0, the equation becomes a linear equation.) The letters a, b, and c are called coefficients: the quadratic coefficient a is the coefficient of x2, the linear coefficient b is the coefficient of x, and c is the constant coefficient, also called the free term or constant term. Quadratic equations are called quadratic because quadratus is Latin for "square"; in the leading term the variable is squared. A quadratic equation with real or complex coefficients has two (not necessarily distinct) solutions, called roots, which may or may not be real, given by the quadratic formula: : where the symbol "±" indicates that both : and are solutions.
How is the multiplicative inverse used to solve an equation that has a rational coefficient?
When you multiply both sides of the equation with the multiplicative inverse of the coefficient then the coefficient becomes one. 1/2*x =5 2*1/2*x=2*5 1x=10 x=10
What linear equations are not functions?
Yes. Any linear equation of the form x = c (meaning that the coefficient of y is zero and that the graphed line is vertical) is not a function, as all points are verticaly above or below every other point. This is by definition a nonfunction.
