$y = \frac{1}{x^{- 1}}$

Step 1

Move $x^{- 1}$ to the numerator using the negative exponent rule $\frac{1}{b^{- n}} = b^{n}$ .

$y = x$

Step 2

A linear equation is an equation of a straight line, which means that the degree of a linear equation must be $0$ or $1$ for each of its variables. In this case, the degree of variable $y$ is $1$ and the degree of variable $x$ is $1$ .
