Question

express the following linear equation in the form of ax+by+c=0 and indicate the value of a,b and c. 2x+3y=-5​

Answer 1

2x+3y+5=0

a = 2 b = 3 c=5

Explanation:

We are asked to express 2x+3y=-5 in the form ax+by+c=0

Add 5 to both sides

2x+3y+5=0

We can now find the values of a, b and c now that the equation is in standard form.
