What does it mean for a ordered pair to be a solution to a linear equation?

An ordered pair is a solution only of a linear equation in two variables - not any linear equation. Often the variables are denoted by x and y. If the first of the ordered pair is substituted for x in the equation, and the second for y, then the equation represents a true statement.

What is the solution of the system of equations for y 5x plus 6?
If you mean y = 5x+6 then it is a straight line equation whereas 5 is the slope and 6 is the y intercept
What does it mean if the slope of a line is undefined?
it means that the line in the linear equation is a vertical line
What is the solution of this equation x plus 1528?
what the solution to this equation x+15=28 If you mean: x+15 = 28 then the value of x works out as 13
What does it mean if an equation equals 0 does it have one solution no solution or indefinitely many solutions?
It has infinitely many solutions.
What does solution set mean in math?
The set of all the solutions of an equation or condition
What does it mean to be a solution to an equation?
A solution to an equation is a set of values for the variables in the equation which make it true.
Is this equation linear or nonlinear y2x?
If you mean y = 2x then it is a straight line equation
Is the the function y5x-3 linear or non linear?
If you mean y = 5x-3 then it is the linear equation of a straight line
What does it mean when an equation has no solution?
It means that the equation has no way of working it out / There is no answer.
Is the the function y4x plus 2 linear or non linear?
If you mean y = 4x+2 then it is the linear equation of a straight line
What does it mean both algebraically and graphically when an ordered pair is a solution to a system of two linear equations?
If an ordered pair is a solution to a system of linear equations, then algebraically it returns the same values when substituted appropriately into the x and y variables in each equation. For a very basic example: (0,0) satisfies the linear system of equations given by y=x and y=-2x By substituting in x=0 into both equations, the following is obtained: y=(0) and y=-2(0)=0 x=0 returns y=0 for both equations, which satisfies the ordered pair (0,0). This means that if an ordered pair is a solution to a system of equations, the x of that ordered pair returns the same y for all equations in the system. Graphically, this means that all equations in the system intersect at that point. This makes sense because an x value returns the same y value at that ordered pair, meaning all equations would have the same value at the x-coordinate of the ordered pair. The ordered pair specifies an intersection point of the equations.
Is y2x plus 5 linear equation?
If you mean: y = 2x+5 then it is a straight line equation.
Is y equals 2 to the x power a linear equation?
If you mean y = 2^x, then no, it is not a linear equation. This is an exponential equation. The graph of this exponential equation would start out near zero on the left-hand side (there is a horizontal asymptote at y = 0) and would gradually increase as you move to the right: overall, it has a curved shaped. If you mean y = 2x, then yes, it is a linear equation.
What do you mean if a linear model underestimates?
In graph form, the linear equation lies below the true line or curve.
What does solution of the equation mean?
its mean solve the problem, to fine the solution like what makes it work.
What is the solution of the system of equations for y 5x plus 6?

What does it mean if the slope of a line is undefined?
it means that the line in the linear equation is a vertical line
