A Linear Equation is an equation of a line. A Quadratic Equation is the equation of a parabola. and has at least one variable squared (such as x2) And together they form a System.
in the linear equation the greatest power of the variables is 1 for example:2X+4 this is a linearequationasthegreatestpowerofthevariableX is 1also by drawing it in a graph you will obtain a straight line
while in the quadratic equation the greatestpoweris2for instance:X^2+4X-3 this is a QuadraticequationbecausethegreatestpowerofthevariableX is 2also by drawing it on a graph you will obtain a parabola which is a curve "an upward curve or downward curve"
