Answer: a = 2 and c = 7 is the value of a and c.
Given: Equation of line is y + ax = c, the line passes through the points (1,5) and (3,1).
To Find: We have to find the value of a and c.
Step-by-Step Explanation:
If a line passes through a point, then the point satisfies the equation of the line.
Putting the value of first point in the equation of line:
5 + a = c ---(1)
Putting the value of second point in the equation of line:
1 + 3a = c ---(2)
Subtracting (2) from (1):
4 -2a = 0
a = 2
Now, putting the value of a in the equation (1)
c = 7
Therefore, the values of a = 2 and c = 7.
