What is the definition of Simultaneous Linear Equations?
A system of linear equations is two or more simultaneous linear equations. In mathematics, a system of linear equations (or linear system) is a collection of linear equations involving the same set of variables.
What is a short definition of linear for algebra?
'goes up by the same amount each time'
Would the cross section of a satellite dish be modeled by a linear or a quadratic equation?
The satellite dish is a parabolic reflector. A parabola cannot be modeled by a linear equation because a linear equation is one that graphs as a straight line. It takes a second degree expression to plot it, and that means a quadratic equation.
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.
What is a linear line?
The term "linear line" is redundant; lines are necessarily linear, since linear means in the form of a line.
