[ 5x - 5 ] is not an equation at all, until you say that it's 'equal' to something.

If you say that it's equal to a number, or to another multiple of 'x', or even

to a multiple of 'y', then you'll have a linear equation.

It is a linear equation in the variable x. You can solve for x using algebra: -5x + 3 = -22 -5x = -25 -x = -5 x = 5


Is y 2- 5x a linear equation?

NO!!! Because it is not equated to any value. However if you mean y^(2) - 5x = 0 Then y^(2) = 5x is NOT a linear equation. It is a parabola lying on its side.

Is 5x-2y plus 10 equals 0 is a quadratic equation?

No. It is a linear equation (y = 5/2 x + 5). A quadratic equation requires a squared term, for example y = x2 + 5x + 6; this can be solved for x given y = 0, as in solving x2 + 5x + 6 = 0.

When does the nonlinear equation becomes linear equation?

A linear equation is defined as an equation that contains only the first power of the unknown quantity. For example, 5x - 3 = 7 where "x" is the unknown quantity is a linear equation. If an equation contains an unknown quantity having a higher power than 1, then the equation ceases to be a linear equation. For example, 3x2 + 5x + 7 = 0 is a non linear equation known as a quadratic equation, because the unknown quantity "x" has a power of 2. Similarly, equations containing unknowns with higher powers such as x3, x7, x12 are all non linear equations.
