A linear equation in two variables doesn't involve any power higher than one for either variable. It has the general form Ax + By + C = 0, where A, B and C are constants. It's possible to simplify this to y = mx + b, where m = ( −A / B) and b is the value of y when x = 0. A quadratic equation, on the other hand, involves one of the variables raised to the second power. It has the general form y = ax2 + bx + c. Apart from the adding complexity of solving a quadratic equation compared to a linear one, the two equations produce different types of graphs.
Answer:
The correct option is D. y = 25
.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) From the table and our own observation and a trial and error approach we
can clearly see that the equation that matches y in feet ( the distance
traveled by the rocket) and x in seconds ( the time elapsed) is given by the
equation y = 25
Therefore the correct option is D. y = 25
.
Y=-2x-7
Y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
