Linear Equation

A Linear Equation is an equation with two variables that have an exponent no greater than 1.

y = 2x + 4

Above is an example of a linear equation.

By choosing values of "x" and solving for "y", we can collect a series of points that will allow us to graph the linear equation:

Figure 1.

Now, we can graph the linear equation:

Figure 2.
