Question 13
The positive solutions of the equation ax + by + c = 0 always lie in the:
A) Ist quadrant
B) IInd quadrant
C) IIIrd quadrant
D) IVth quadrant
The answer is A.
We know that, if a line passes through the Ist quadrant, then all solution lying on the line in the first quadrant must be positive because the coordinates of all points in the Ist quadrant are positive.
