An equation that forms a straight line on a graph.
More precisely, a linear equation is one that is dependent only on constants and a variable raised to the first power. For example, y=6x+2 is linear because it has no squares, cubes, square roots, sines, etc. Linear equations can always be manipulated to take this form:
ax+b=0
You won't always see linear equations written exactly like that, but keep in mind that we can manipulate equations to put them in a particular form if necessary.
Linear equations are often written with more than one variable, typically x and y. Such equations will have many possible combinations of x and y that work. When those points (known as coordinate pairs) are plotted on an x-y axis, they will form a straight line. Let's take a look at this graphically below. The two equations drawn are linear. Note that one is in the form y=3 (it is dependent on just a constant, 3), and the other equation is y=0.75x−0.5 (a linear term and a constant).
Answer:
7.41
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertical component:
S = 268.8
U = 0
V =?
A = 9.8
T=?
S = ut + 0.5at^2. u = 0
268.8 = 0.5x9. 8xt^2
T = 7.41 seconds
The answer is x=-13
I hope the answer helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
less than the most hour
Required
Hours read by Miss Allen
The question is incomplete, as the hours read by each student is not given.
To solve this, I will assume that the longest hours read by a student is x.
So, the expression for Miss Allen will be:
Assume that 
The expression becomes
