What are linear equations?

An equation is said to be linear if the maximum power of the variable is consistently 1. Another name for it is a one-degree equation. A linear equation with one variable has the conventional form Ax + B = 0. In this case, the variables x and A are variables, while B is a constant. A linear equation with two variables has the conventional form Ax + By = C.

Given that y varies inversely as x varies

according to the condition y is inversely proportional to the x,

the equation can b written with the sign of proportionality,

y ∝ 1/x

when the proportionality sign is removed a constant is added, say k

so the equation is,

y = k × 1/x

y = k/x

given values of x and y

x = 12 and y = 5,

with these values, we can calculate the value of k

substitute the values of x and y in the equation,

y = k/x

5 = k/12

k = 5×12

k = 60

to find the value of y when x is 15

x = 15,

substitute values in the equation,

y = k/x

where k = 60

y = 60/15

y = 4

Hence the value of y for the condition is y = 4.

"When I Was Fair and Young"
by Queen Elizabeth I circa 1585
When I was fair and young, then favor graced me.
Of many was I sought their mistriss for to be,
But I did scorn them all and answered them therefore:
Go, go, go, seek some other where, importune me no more.

How many weeping eyes I made to pine in woe,
How many sighing hearts I have not skill to show,

But I the prouder grew and still this spake, therefore:
Go, go, go, seek some otherwhere, importune me no more.

Then spake fair Venus' son, that brave victorious boy,
Saying: You dainty dame, for that you be so coy,
I will so pluck your plumes as you shall say no more:
Go, go, go, seek some otherwhere, importune me no more.

As soon as he had said, such change grew in my breast
That neither night nor day I could take any rest.
Wherefore I did repent that I had said before:
Go, go, go, seek some otherwhere, importune me no more.
