Question

Express x + 2 = 5 in the form of a linear equation in two variables

Answer 1

The given equation x +2 =5 can be

simplified as x = 3

The general form of linear equation in two variables x and y is

ax + by = c

Now the given equation can be put in two variables x and y as

x + 0y = 3

Answer 2

given, x + 2 = 5 => x = 5 - 2 = 3 is a linear equation of one variable.

we know, standard form of linear equation in two variables is given by $ax+by+c=0$
where a is coefficient of x and b is coefficient of y and c is constant term.

now, x = 3
x - 3 = 0
1.x + 0.y + (-3) = 0 it is in the form of a linear equation of two variables.
