Question

How many linear equations are satisfied by $x=3$ and $y=-2$?

• A. Only one
• B. Two
• C. Three
• D. Infinitely many

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Infinitely many

Explanation of the correct option:

Option (D): Infinitely many

A linear equation in two variables is given in the form $ax+by+c=0$.

Compare the given values with the general equation;

We have $x=2$ and $y=3$ but we can decide the values of $a,b\&c$ accordingly

and they can attain infinite values.

Thus, infinite such equations exist.

Hence, option (d) is the correct answer.
