Solve the equation for the given variable. If your answer is a fraction, write it in reduced, fractional form. Do NOT convert the answer to a decimal. If the equation has no solution enter "No solution". If the equation is true for all real numbers enter "All real numbers".
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
