The quadratic formula can be used to solve an equation only if the highest degree in the equation is 2.
A non-linear equation is any equation which includes variables with a degree other than one. Therefore, any equation involving x2, x3, x4, .... would be non-linear. For example: y= 3x+2 is linear, because x and y are both degree 1 (no exponent) y= 2x2 is non-linear, because x is degree 2.

Oh, dude, it's like this: all quadratic equations are polynomials, but not all polynomials are quadratic equations. A quadratic equation is a specific type of polynomial that has a degree of 2, meaning it has a highest power of x^2. So, like, all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares, you know what I mean?
True Yes. Although the term 'quad' stands for four, a quadratic equation is a polynomial of second degree.
An example of an equation with a degree of 2 is (y = 3x^2 + 2x + 1). This is a quadratic equation because the highest power of (x) is 2.
The quadratic formula can be used to solve an equation only if the highest degree in the equation is 2.

An equation of the second degree, meaning it contains at least one term that is squared.
A non-linear equation is any equation which includes variables with a degree other than one. Therefore, any equation involving x2, x3, x4, .... would be non-linear. For example: y= 3x+2 is linear, because x and y are both degree 1 (no exponent) y= 2x2 is non-linear, because x is degree 2.

A degree of a differential equation is the highest power of highest order of a differential term of the equation. For example, 5(d^4 x/dx^4) - (dx/dx)^2 =7 Here 5(d^4x/dx^2) has the highest order and so the degree will be it's power which is 1.
Yes, since y = x - 2 has the degree of 1 [or the highest exponent of the equation], x - 2 is the linear equation.
a linear equation
An equation with a degree of three typically has three solutions. However, it is possible for one or more of those solutions to be repeated or complex.
The highest power in the equation.
the name is squared equation
