Question

Which of the following best describes the equation below?

y = 1/5i -7


A.
both linear and nonlinear
B.
neither linear nor nonlinear
C.
nonlinear
D.
linear

Answer 1

linear → D

The equation of a line ( linear ) in ' slope- intercept form ' is

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c the y- intercept

Here the variable is i but the equation is of the form y = mx + c

Thus is a linear equation.
