Express the following linear equations in the form ax + by + c = 0 and indicate the values of a, b, c in each case:(i) x = 3y(ii) 2x = -5y(iii) 3x + 2 = 0

Answer»

(i) x = 3y

1x − 3y + 0 = 0

Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0,

a = 1, b = −3, c = 0

(ii) 2x = −5y

2x + 5y + 0 = 0

Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0,

a = 2, b = 5, c = 0

(iii) 3x + 2 = 0

3x + 0.y + 2 = 0

Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0,

a = 3, b = 0, c = 2
