Question

Express the following linear equations in the form ax + by + c = 0 and indicate the value of a, b and c in each case :
i) $2x+3y=9.3\overline{5}$
ii) $x-\frac{y}{5}-10=0$
iii) -2x + 3y = 6

Answer 1

i) $2x+3y=9.3\overline{5}⟹2x+3y-9.3\overline{5}$

where $a=2,b=3$ and $c=-9.3\overline{5}$

ii) $x-\frac{1}{5}y-10=0$

where $a=1,b=\frac{1}{5}$ and $c=-10$

iii) $-2x+3y=6⟹2x-3y+6=0$

where $a=2,b=-3$ and $c=6$
