Question

is -1/2x a linear equation? is -1/2x a linear equation? @Mathematics

Answer 1

\[y=-\frac{1}{2}x \text{ is linear}\]

Answer 2

yes it is if you mean y=-x/2 the its a linear line

Answer 3

\[y=-\frac{1}{2x} \text{ is \not linear }\]

Answer 4

k thts what i thought cuz some one else is confusing me on my other question

Answer 5

anything in this form or anything that can be written in this form y=mx+b is a linear equation

Answer 6

i kno

Answer 7

can u graph tht for me? i need to check if i am right on my graph

Answer 8

y=-x/2?

Answer 9

y=mx+b
m=slope=rise/run=-1/2
b=y-intercept=0
so the line goes through the origin
so count down 1 and go over right twice for your next pt
connect the dots and then you are done

Answer 10

i did tht but draw what the line looks like so i am sure

Answer 11

is it like this?:

Answer 12
