What is a linear equation?

  • A linear equation has one or two variables.
  • No variable in a linear equation is raised to a power greater than 1.
  • No variable is used as the denominator of a fraction.

  • A linear equation is defined as an equation that is written in the form of ax+by=c.
  • When solving the system of linear equations, we will get the values of the variable, which is called the solution of a linear equation.

solving this we will get the valve of Y if x is given.

Calculation:-

Given initial feight= 16 feet

h(t)= -16t2 + initial height

for 1 second

⇒ h(1)= -16(1)2 +16

⇒ h = -32 +16

⇒ h = -16 ( 16 feet downward i.e penny will tough the ground)
