There are two uses of the word "linear" in math. The first is simple: linear function is one who's graph is a straight line. This happens when the highest power of a polynomial x is 1, ie no terms with x^2 or x^3 or higher (or lower than 1), only x^1 (just x).
Another use of linear-
A function is also said to be "linear" if it has the following properties: (1) Additivity, ie f(x+y) = f(x) + f(y)
(2) f(c*x)=c*f(x), where c is a constant
You know if an equation is linear if it is a straight line. You can also know if the equation is y = mx + b where there are no absolute values nor exponents.
we study linear equation in other to know more about quadratic equation
dun know :D
i dont know 8x+5y=89
A linear equation looks like any other equation. It is made up of two expressions set equal to each other. A linear equation is special because: It has one or two variables. No variable in a linear equation is raised to a power greater than 1 or used as the denominator of a fraction. When you find pairs of values that make the linear equation true and plot those pairs on a coordinate grid, all of the points for any one equation lie on the same line. Linear equations graph as straight lines.

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.
It appears to be a linear equation in the variable, g.It appears to be a linear equation in the variable, g.It appears to be a linear equation in the variable, g.It appears to be a linear equation in the variable, g.
An equation is linear if the highest power of the unknown in the equation is 1for example an equation with just a variable to the power one such as x, y and so on is linear but one with x2, y2 and above is not linear
Y = 5X - 3It form a linear function; a line.
A solution of a linear equation is called a root or a solution. It is a value that satisfies the equation when substituted back into it.

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