A linear equation is a mathematical equation that represents a straight line when graphed on a coordinate plane. It typically takes the form: \[ ax + by + c = 0 \] or in slope-intercept form: \[ y = mx + b \] where: - \( x \) and \( y \) are the variables. - \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) are constants (with \( a \) and \( b \) not both zero).
