A linear equation is a specific type of function that represents a straight line on a graph. While all linear equations are functions, not all functions are linear equations. Functions can take many forms, including non-linear ones that do not result in a straight line on a graph. Linear equations, on the other hand, follow a specific form (y = mx + b) where the x variable has a coefficient and the equation represents a straight line.
Equations are not linear when they are quadratic equations which are graphed in the form of a parabola
The answer depends on what form the equation is in and what form you want it in. The standard form is ax + by +c = 0 where x and y are variables and a, b and c are constants. There are also the 1-d equivalent: ax + b = 0 and 3-d equivalent: ax + by + cz + d = 0 and, equivalent equations in spaces with higher dimensions.
