Question

The numerator of a fraction is less than the denominator. Write a linear equation in two variables to represent the statement. (a) x = y -1 (b) x + y +1 = 0 (c) x + y =1 (d) x = y

Answer 1

(a)1x+1=y
1x+1y+1=0
(b)1x+1y+1=0
(c)1x+1y-1=0
1x+1y+(-1)=0
(d)1x+1y=0
1x+1y+1=0
because the equation is ax+by+c=o
