No, a linear graph represents a constant rate of change, meaning the slope is always the same. A decreasing linear graph would have a negative slope but would still have constant decrease. A decreasing graph can be nonlinear, where the rate of decrease changes over time.

To solve for x in terms of y, we need to rearrange the equation.
Starting with the equation y = mx + b, we can isolate x on one side by performing the following steps:
y = mx + b
Subtract b from both sides: y - b = mx
Divide both sides by m: (y - b)/m = x
Therefore, x = (y - b)/m.
