Equations can be classified according to the highest power of the variable. Since the highest power of the variable in a linear equation is one, it is also called a first-order equation.
Substitute the first of the ordered pair wherever x appears in the equation and the second value wherever you have y. Evaluate the equation. If it is true, then the point is on the line and if not, it is not.
In a linear (first-order) equation, it is the ratio of the change in y of a segment to the change in x of the same segment. If the equation is in the form y = mx + b, m is the slope. In a higher-order equation, the instantaneous slope is the slope of the tangent line intersecting a particular point along the curve.
An Airy equation is an equation in mathematics, the simplest second-order linear differential equation with a turning point.
