Question:
Write each of the following as an equation in two variables:
(i) 2x = – 3
(ii) y = 3
(iii) 5x = 7/ 2
(iv) y = 3/2x
Solution:
(i) We are given,
2x = - 3
Now, in two variable forms the given equation will be
2x + 0y + 3 = 0
(ii) We are given,
y = 3
Now, in two variable forms the given equation will be
0 x + y - 3 = 0
(iii) We are given,
5x = – 7/2
Now, in two variable forms the given equation will be
5x + 0y + 7/2 = 0
10x + 0y - 7 = 0
(iv) We are given,
y = 32x (Taking L.C.M on both sides)
Now, in two variable forms the given equation will be
3x - 2y + 0 = 0
