Question

What is the equation of the line? Identify the values of aa, bb, and cc in the standard form of the equation.

Options:
a) ax + by = cax+by=c
b) y = mx + by=mx+b
c) a = y - bxa=y−bx
d) c = ax + byc=ax+by

Answer 1

The equation of a line can be written in standard form as ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are constants.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line can be written in standard form as ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are constants. The values of a, b, and c can be determined from the given equation. In option a) ax + by = c, a = a, b = b, and c = 0. In option b) y = mx + b, there is no c term, so c = 0. In option c) a = y - bx, there is no c term, so c = 0. In option d) c = ax + by, a = 0, b = 0, and c = 0.
