Question

Express the linear equation $93x=12-15y$ in the form of $ax+by+c=0$ and indicate the value of $a,b$ and $c.$

Answer 1

Rewrite the given equation,

$\begin{array}{cc}93x& =12-15y\\ 0& =12-15y-93x\\ -1\left(93x+15y-12\right)& =0\\ 93x+15y-12& =0\dots \left(i\right)\end{array}$

On comparing equation $\left(i\right)$ with $ax+by+c=0,$ we get,

$a=93,b=15$ and $c=-12$
