Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Reason:

  • <em>The </em><em>power</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>term</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>one</em><em>.</em>
  • <em>It</em><em> </em><em>can</em><em> </em><em>be</em><em> </em><em>graphed</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>at.</em><em> </em><em>line</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>graph</em><em>.</em>

<em>Yo</em><em>u</em><em> </em><em>can</em><em> </em><em>simpl</em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>defi</em><em>ne</em><em> </em><em>linear</em><em> </em><em>eq</em><em>uation</em><em> </em><em>as</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>eq</em><em>uation</em><em> </em><em>which</em><em> </em><em>has</em><em> </em><em>two</em><em> </em><em>vari</em><em>ables</em><em> </em><em>with</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>exponent</em><em>.</em>

<em>So</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>you</em><em> </em><em>can</em><em> </em><em>graph</em><em> </em><em>out</em><em> </em><em>that </em><em>why</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>called</em><em> </em><em>linear</em><em> </em><em>equation</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>It</em><em> </em><em>have</em><em> </em><em>tw</em><em>o</em><em> variables</em><em> with</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>exponent</em><em>.</em>

Answer:

Y=mx+b Is a linear equasion because if you plot the x and y on a graph it always shows a straight line.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, y=7x+9,

When x is 1 y is 16, and

when x is 2 y is 23.

When you put those two points on a graph and connect the dots with a ruler, you get a straight line, and you will automatically find that when x is 3 y is 30.

Zina [86]

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the line AB divided into 7 equal parts.

It is given that point P partitions the directed line segment from A to B in 3:4. It means 3 parts are before P and 4 partes are after P.

It is given that point Q partitions the directed line segment from A to B in 4:3. It means 4 parts are before Q and 3 partes are after Q.

It is given that point R partitions the directed line segment from A to B in2:5. It means 2 parts are before R and 5 partes are after R.

It is given that point S partitions the directed line segment from A to B in 5:2. It means 5 parts are before S and 2 partes are after S.

From the below figure we can say that point S is closest to point B.

It is also written as

A

A

Therefore option 4 is correct.
