2014/9/16 Linear Equations Ad Options Ads by Vidx Linear Equations A linear equation is an equation for a straight line These are all linear equations: y = 2x+1 5x = 6+3y y/2 = 3 x Let us look more closely at one example: Example: y = 2x+1 is a linear equation: The graph of y = 2x+1 is a straight line When x increases‚ y increases twice as fast‚ hence 2x When x is 0‚ y is already 1. Hence +1 is also needed So: y = 2x + 1 Here are some example values: http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/linear-equations

Does Not Equal Supply and Vice Versa) Linear programming is a mathematical method that is used to apportion resources in as efficient a way as possible. It is used to conserve valuable assets and save money. It is sometimes referred to as LP. The transportation method of linear programming is the specific application of LP that addresses transportation problems. Solving transportation problems is one of the most common uses of linear programming. It is also one of the most important

Linear Approaches Linear Approach is also known as the managerial approach because all the models that fall under this approach describe changes from the vision until the implementation stage. It is considered the simplest of all the traditional models in the theories of change. According to Stacey (1996) managing a change under any circumstances whether planned or unplanned is complex with many starts and stops throughout the complete process. This conclusion has been come to under the assumptions
