Look at it! Can you put into a form like Ax+By=C? Are all exponents for the unknown variables in YOUR equation 1 ?

and if you are interested in the axis intercepts, have you thought to:
Let y=0 and solve for x?
Let x=0 and solve for y?

A linear equation is any equation that can be written in the form
where, and are real numbers, and are variables. This form is sometimes called the form of a linear equation.

given:

Rewrite the equation in form.

The equation is now in standard form where ,, and.
so, answer is: This a linear equation.
