A linear equation is one in which the variable is raised to the first power (i.e. x, not x squared or x cubed or anything else). An example would be y = mx + c. In an exponetial equation the variable is part of the exponent, e.g. y = 3^x + c.
No, it is part of the solution set.
Each part of an equation or an expression is called a term.
An equation is a statement that two quantities are equal, or the same, identical, in value. It is expressed by putting an equal sign (=) between the two quantities. An inequality is a statement that two quantities are not equal, or more specifically, that one is less than the other, or less than or equal to the other. It is expressed with the unequal sign (an equal sign with a slash through it), a less than sign (), or a less than or equal sign or greater than or equal sign. A less than or equal sign looks like a less than sign with an underscore; similarly for the greater than or equal sign.Answer 1A linear equation may be represented by all the points on a straight line.A linear inequality would be represented by all points in the plane on one side or the other of the line which is determined by the corresponding equation. The line itself may or may not be part of the solution.
Quality does not normally play any part in linear equations.
