Linear Equation in Two Variables 2
We have learnt:
The Graph of Linear Equation in Two Variables is a straight line in the Cartesian Coordinate Plane
The Linear Equation in Two Variables in the Standard form is ax + by + c = 0
Finding the values of a, b and c
Forming Linear Equation in Two Variables
Let us Learn
Exercise 4.1
2. Express the following linear equations in the form ax + by + c = 0 and indicate the values of a, b and
y
c in each case: (i) 2x + 3y = 9.35́ (ii) x – – 10 = 0 (iii) –2x + 3y = 6 (iv) x = 3y
5
(v) 2x = –5y (vi) 3x + 2 = 0 (vii) y – 2 = 0 (viii) 5 = 2x
Solution: y (iii) –2x + 3y = 6
(ii) x – – 10 = 0
(i) 2x + 3y = 9.35́ 5 –2x + 3y – 6= 0
2x + 3y – 9.35́ = 0 1 a = -2, b = 3, c= -6
a = 1, b = – , c = - 10
a = 2, b = 3, c = – 9.35́ 5
(vii) y – 2 = 0 (viii) 5 = 2x
0x + y – 2 = 0 2x – 5 = 0
a = 0, b = 1, c = -2 2x + 0y – 5 = 0
a= 2, b = 0, c = -5
x + 2y = 6 x + 2y = 6
let y = 4 let y = 8
x + 2y = 6 x + 2y = 6
x + 2(4) = 6 x + 2(8) = 6
x+8=6 x + 16 = 6
x=6–8 x = 6 – 16
x = -2 x = -10
