Yes, since y = x - 2 has the degree of 1 [or the highest exponent of the equation], x - 2 is the linear equation.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

Is y equals 3x a linear equation?

Yes, because non-linear equations involve x2.


What are linear and nonlinear regression?

A linear equation is an equation that in math. It is a line. Liner equations have no X2. An example of a linear equation is x-2 A linear equation also equals y=mx+b. It has a slope and a y-intercept. A non-linear equation is also an equation in math. It can have and x2 and it is not a line. An example is y=x2+3x+4 Non linear equations can be quadratics, absolute value or expodentail equations.


Do linear equations contain x squared?

No, linear equations don't have x2. Equation with x and y are usually linear equations. Equations with either x2 or y2 (but never both) are usually quadratic equations.


Why are not all functions linear equations?

Linear equations can be written as y = mx + b. Any other function would be non-linear. Some linear equations are: y = 3x y = 2 y = -2x + 4 y = 3/4x - 0.3 Some non-linear functions are: f(x) = x2 y = sqrt(x) f(x) = x3 + x2 - 2


How do you solve linear equations when the given is x equals -3 y equals 5?

If you already know that x = -3 and y = 5 what linear equations are you wanting to solve?


Is y equals x2 plus 4 a linear equation?

It is linear in y, quadratic in x. Generally, that would be considered a quadratic.


What are the solutions to the non linear system of equations below y equals 3x and x2 plus y2 equals 10.Check all that apply?

x=1, y=3 . . . √ x= -1, y= -3 . . . √ x=1, y=-3 . . . x=-1, y=3 . . .


Example equations of linear equations?

y=3x+2 y-4x=9 These are examples of linear equations which is a first degree algebraic expression with one, two or more variables equated to a constant. So x=2 is a linear equation as is y=1 but x2 =1 is not since the variable, x , has degree 2.


What kind of solution is 2x-y equals 0 and 4x-2y equals 0?

The two equations are linear.


9x-3y equals 24 y equals 3x-8 the system?

The system is simultaneous linear equations


What is y equals -02 equals x squared plus x plus 4?

Two equations: a linear one in y and a quadratic in x.


What is the correct classification of this system of equations -2x plus y equals 7 3y equals 6x plus 4?

Inconsistent linear equations in two variables.
