=12 is the function linear?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

that is no function, it is not even a equation

OpenStudy (akshay_budhkar):

not even a complete expression

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its not a complete question ...........

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I assume typo: y = 12 is horizontal line x = 12 is vertical line They are linear equations.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea..............sure

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

does x=12 pass the vertical line test. no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any variable with an exponent greater than 1 is not a linear equation such as x^2 = 12 is not linear. just look for the highest degree (aka highest exponent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and x = 12 technically isn't a function nor does it have slope so it isn't even a "line" by mathematical standards i guess
