A linear equation may be used to convert a unit price to a price for the quantity that you want. For example, if one bottle of drink costs C units then (at that same price) 5 bottles will cost 5*C units. It is used in the same way by businesses.

How do you graph a linear equation slope intercept?
You can graph a linear equation slope intercept by solving the equation and plugging in the numbers : y=mx+b
How does the slope of a linear equation differ from the slope of a quadratic equation?
i dont know 8x+5y=89
What do a linear equation look like?
A linear equation looks like a straight line, it sometimes does slope, but it is straight.
Is y equals 5 a linear equation?
Yes, the equation has a slope of 0.
How do you get a linear equation from a graph?
Slope= rise over run
How do you identify a slope given in a linear equation?
To identify the slope in a linear equation, rearrange the equation into the form y = mx + b. The term m is the slope.

What is the slope of the equation y equals 12x-23?
35
Whats the equation for slope?
If the algebraic equation is linear, in the form y = mx + b, the slope is simply m; the difference in y of any 2 points divided by the difference in x of those points (rise over run). If the equation is non-linear, the slope is the first derivative of that equation, from calculus. You woul need to know calculus to solve in this case. The slope will vary from point to point, unlike the linear case, where slope is constant.
What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?
y=mx+b
