    Please help me with the attached algebra problems.

    Linear equations are assessed.

    What similarities and differences do you see between the functions and linear equations studied in Ch. 3? Are all linear equations functions? Is there an instance when a linear equation is not a function? Support your answer. Create an equation of a nonlinear function and provide two inputs for your classmates to evaluate.

    Finding the slope of a line is a fundamental skill for every user of mathematics.

    Sometimes you need to find the slope of a line based on two given points. Sometimes you need to read a linear equation and determine the slope of a lone from the equation. This solution covers both of these cases and shows how to avoid errors, especially when determining the slope from two points. It also shows how to interpr
