Overview of Linear Equations
This lesson provides an overview of linear equations, explaining that they are basic and simple representations of straight lines. All linear equations can be written in the form y = mx + b, where the operations used are multiplication, addition, and subtraction. However, there are certain things to look out for when determining whether an equation is linear, such as not having variables in the denominator or variables multiplied by each other. By understanding these basic rules, one can easily solve linear equations.
Overview of Linear equations
I show how to solve math problems online during live instruction in class. This is my way of providing free tutoring for the students in my class and for students anywhere in the world. Every video is a short clip that shows exactly how to solve math problems step by step. The problems are done in real time and in front of a regular classroom. These videos are intended to help you learn how to solve math problems, review how to solve a math problems, study for a test, or finish your homework. I post all of my videos on YouTube, but if you are looking for other ways to interact with me and my videos you can follow me on the following pages through My Blog, Twitter, or Facebook.

Could have given some examples to reinforce how to identify a linear equation
