y=10x+15
Without the inclusion of an equality sign and not knowing the plus or minus values of the given terms it can't be considered to be a straight line equation
You get a straight line. as in 2x + y. * * * * * Wrong! 2x + y is not a line, it is an expression. The standard form of the equation of a line is y = mx + c where m is the slope. If there is no slope, then m = 0 and so the equation becomes y = c. This is a straight line parallel to the x-axis.
A Y-intercept and the slope. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the Y axis.
You must find the slope, if it is positive, then the line is always increasing. If it is negative, then the line is always decreasing.
A linear equation is, basically, a line. An example is y=2x+3. They are commonly found in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis). A non-linear equation can be many things. Parabolas and exponential equations are not linear.
A linear equation looks like a straight line, it sometimes does slope, but it is straight.
it means that the line in the linear equation is a vertical line
Without the inclusion of an equality sign and not knowing the plus or minus values of the given terms it can't be considered to be a straight line equation
You can write it either in standard form (ax + by = c) or in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)
The equation for the slope of a linear equation is Y=Mx+b, where m is the slope of the line, (Rise over run) and where B is the Y-intercept. (Where it crosses the Y axis)
Because a linear equation is, by definition, a straight line. Any line can be defined by selecting any one point on the line and the slope of the line.
If given simply the slope of a line and a point through which it passes, and then told to find the equation of the line, one of the easiest ways of doing so is to use the point-slope formula.

If necessary, rearrange the linear equation so that it is in the slope-intercept form: y = mx + c Then the gradient of the line is m.
This is the equation of a line in which the slope is 1 and the y-intercept is -4.
