Question

Is y-x+wz=5 linear? And not, why and if so, can you put it in slope intercept form?

Answer 1

A linear equation is an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. It is also known as a one-degree equation. The standard form of this kind of equation is given by:

`Ax+By=C`

For the equation:

`y-x+wz=5`

We can conclude is not a linear equation since there is a product between two variables.
