What is a linear equation ?

Mathematics
1 answer:
dusya [7]3 years ago
8 0

A linear equation is an equation that represents a line. A linear equation has a variable raised to the 1st power.

For example, Y = 2x, Y = x + 1, Y = 8x - 3 are examples of linear equations.

However, something like Y =\frac{4}{x} and Y = 6^{x} seem to have a variable raised to the 1st power, but they're not linear.

Which of the following could be the ratio between the lengths of the two legs
skad [1K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B, E

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratios of side lengths in a 30-60-90 triangle are ...

  1 : √3 : 2

The two legs are the shorter sides, so any ratio that reduces to 1 : √3 is an appropriate choice:

  B.  1 : √3

  E.  2√3 : 6

Use graphing to find the solutions to the system of equations.
Galina-37 [17]
In order to utilize the graph, first you have to distinguish which graph accurately pertains to the two functions.

This can be done by rewriting the equations in the form y = mx + b which can be graphed with ease; where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

-x^2 + y = 1
y = x^2 + 1

So this will be a basic y = x^2 parabola where the center intercepts on the y axis at (0, 1)

-x + y = 2
y = x +2

So this will be a basic y = x linear where the y intercept is on the y axis at (0, 2)

The choice which depicts these two graphs correctly is the first choice. The method to find the solutions to the system of equations by using the graph is by determining the x coordinate of the points where the two graphed equations intersect.

What does simplify the expression mean in algebra?
Pavel [41]
Reduce the number of terms in the expression by operating on like terms 
for example
Simplify
x^2 - 3x + 4 + x^2 + 6x - 6

the like terms are the x^2 and x^2 , -3x and 6x and  4 and -6 

so we have
x^2 + x^2 - 3x + 6x + 4 - 6
= 2x^2 + 3x - 2

This is the simplified form of the original expression
