It's not a linear equation, but its grapg is a straight line.
It is a linear equation, and its graph is a straight line.
It's not a linear equation and its graph is not a straight line.
it's a linear equation, but the graph is not a straight line

The given line y = -2x +30 is a straight line as it is written in the

form y = mx + b.

The graph of the line y = -2x +30 is also straight and attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

y = -2x +30

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Writing the equation in the slope-intercept form

y = -2x +30

y = mx + b

Thus,

m = -2

b = 30

Thus, the given line y = -2x +30 is a straight line as it is written in the

form y = mx + b.

The graph of the line y = -2x +30 is also straight and attached below.
