What is linear equation?

" Linear equation is defined as the algebraic expression of one or more variables with highest power equals to one."

According to the question,

'x' represents the present age of house

'y' represents the years left on the mortgage

Given,

y = 24years

As per the condition given linear equation we get,

 x + y = 5x

⇒x + 24 = 5x

⇒5x - x = 24

⇒4x = 24

⇒x = 24 / 4

⇒x= 6years old

Hence, The house is right now 6years old.
