When an equation is graphed and produces a straight line, it is referred to as a linear equation. Linear equations typically take the form (y = mx + b), where (m) represents the slope and (b) is the y-intercept. The straight line indicates a constant rate of change between the variables.
What else can I help you with?
Is x plus y2 equals 25 a linear equation?
No, not if the y is squared. When graphed the equation will not form a straight line.
What best describes a linear function?
A linear function is a function, or equation, that when graphed, will form a straight line.
What is the definition of a linear expression?
An equation that makes a straight line when it is graphed. Often written in the form: y = mx+b
How do you graph y-4-3x plus 6?
With great difficulty because a straight line equation must contain an equality sign in order for it to be graphed onto the Cartesian plane.
What will make a straight line when graphed?
Y = anything or X = anything
What is it called when a graph goes straight though the origin?
A root of the equation that defines the line graphed exists at 0.
Is x plus y2 equals 25 a linear equation?
No, not if the y is squared. When graphed the equation will not form a straight line.
What best describes a linear function?
A linear function is a function, or equation, that when graphed, will form a straight line.
How did you graph a linear equation in two variables?
By using the formula for a straight line equation graphed on the Cartesian plane by means of the x and y axes.
What is the definition of a linear expression?
An equation that makes a straight line when it is graphed. Often written in the form: y = mx+b
What is a function that forms a line when graphed called?
It is a continuous function. If the line is a straight line, it is a linear function.
What graph would best represent the equation y -4x - 6?
If you mean y = -4x-6 then it is a straight line equation that can be graphed on the Cartesian plane
Why do equivalent ratios form a straight line when graphed Why do equivalent ratios form a straight line when graphed Why do equivalent ratios form a straight line when graphed Why do equivalent ratio?
Suppose y represents the numerator of the fraction and x represents the denominator.A = (x1, y1) and B = (x2, y2) are equivalent fractions if y1/x1 = y2/x2 = some constant m. Then all points representing equivalent fractions are on the straight line whose equation is y = mx.
What is an equation that forms a line when graphed?
y=mx+b
How do you graph y-4-3x plus 6?
With great difficulty because a straight line equation must contain an equality sign in order for it to be graphed onto the Cartesian plane.
What will make a straight line when graphed?
Y = anything or X = anything
When system of linear equations is graphed how is the graph of each equation related to the solutions of that equation?
When a system of linear equations is graphed, each equation is represented by a straight line on the coordinate plane. The solutions to each equation correspond to all the points on that line. The intersection points of the lines represent the solutions to the entire system; if the lines intersect at a point, that point is the unique solution. If the lines are parallel, there are no solutions, and if they overlap, there are infinitely many solutions.
