Question

Which of the following represents x = y written in general form? 2 x - y = 0 1/2 x - y = 0 x - 1/2 y = 0

Answer 1

x - y = 0

Explanation:

General form of equation of straight line is

ax + by = c

that is we have to keep terms containing x and y on LHS and term independent of x and y on RHS.

given

x = y

there, no term independent of x and y

now we have to bring y one RHS

for that we subtract y from LHS and RHS

x - y = y -y

=> x - y = 0

Thus, option x - y = 0 is the correct answer.
