Two Variables
an equation that can be written in
Linear Equation in the form ax + by = c where a, b,
Two Variables and c are real numbers, a ≠0 and b
≠0
ax + by = c where a and b are the
General coefficients of the equation and c is
Form the constant of the equation.
1. it has two variables, 𝑥 and 𝑦;
The equation 4𝑦 = 6 − 5𝑥 is a linear equation in two variables because:
2. it has only 1 variable in each
term;
3. the exponent of the variable
The equation 4𝑦 =
6 − 5𝑥 is a linear in each term is 1 which means
equation in two the degree of the equation is 1;

pair (5, 2) and (2, 5)
Step 1
as the value of your x
and y.
After substituting,
Step 2 perform the indicated
operation.
Since no ordered pair
satisfied the equation,
Step 3
there is no solution to
the linear equation.
