Question

State which of the following are equation? Also identify linear equation and justify your answer.

$\text{4x + 5 <8}$

Answer 1

Equations is an equality that involves one or more unknown values and an equation with variable of power $\text{1}$ is called linear equation.

$\text{4x + 5<<mo space="4"></mo>8}$ is not a equation

As there is no equality sign.

Degree of variable $\mathrm{x}$ is $1$

Hence $\text{4x + 5<<mo space="4"></mo>8}$ is not a linear equation.
