To do linear equations, basically, just imagine it with an equals sign. It is pretty much the same as normal algebra, so it's not too confusing.
An example of a linear equation is 3x - 7 = 11
with this, your objective is to get 'x' on its own and to do this, do inverse operations (the opposite to what is actually done)
For instance, to get '3x' on its own, you must add 7.
So do this for both sides to give you
3x = 18
Yeah?
Now you must get 'x' on its own. It currently has 3 x's at the moment, so you must divide it by 3 to give you one 'x'. A rule with these - what you do to one side you must do to the other.
So this means that if you divide 3x by 3, you must divide 18 by 3.
This leaves you with x = 6.
Is this a relation: {(-2,1), (0,0), (0,1), (1,-2), (1,0), (1,3), (2,0)}? Explain why or why not.

It is a relation because any relation is simply a set of (x,y) values known as points or ordered pairs. There are no other qualifications needed to be a relation. We simply pair up any x and y value we want.
I think you meant to ask if it's a function or not. If so, then the answer is "no, it is not a function". Why not? Because the x value x = 0 produces more than one y output y = 1 and y = -2. Graph these points and you'll see them fail the vertical line test (ie its possible to draw a vertical line through more than one point on the graph). The same issue happens with (1,-2), (1,0) and (1,3) as well.
In summary:
Yes it is a relation
No it is not a function
