Question

the equation in which the highest power of all variable is one is called a _____​

Answer 1

Answer:

1)Simple equation:Linear equation which involves one variable is called a linear equation in one variable or Simple equation.

Example:3x+5=x+2 x+2=10

2)Linear Equation:An equation in which the highest index of the variables present is 1 is called a linear equation

Example: x+y+z=1

3)Linear Polynomial:If the degree of a polynomial is 1 then the polynomial is said to be a linear polynomial.Its general form in one variable x is ax+b where a,b∈R and a



=0

For example:2x+5

4)Multi-equation:If the degree of a polynomial is negative then the polynomial is said to be a multinomial.Its general form in one variable x is

x

a

+b where a,b∈R and a



=0

For example:x

3

−

x

4

,

x

−5 etc

Thus, from the above definitions, we conclude that a simple equation contains only one variable with highest power 1
