Question

Convert the equation 2(x+1) + 3(y-2) = 13 in standard form of linear equation in two
variables & write its three solutions also.

Answer 1

Answer:

Standard form of a linear equation: ax + by + c = 0

2(x + 1) + 3(y - 2) = 13

2x + 2 + 3y - 6 = 13

2x + 3y - 17 = 0

(17 - 3y) / 2 = x

You can take infinite number of values for y.

If y = 1, x = 7

If y = 3, x = 4

If y = 5, x = 1
