Answer to Problem 63HP
Example equation is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The equation in the form Ax + By = C for C = 0
Concept Used:
A linear equation is any equation that can be written in the form.
No variable in a linear equation is raised to a power greater than 1. Linear equations are those equations that are of the first order.
Standard form of Linear Equation is
Calculation:
The equation in the form Ax + By = C for C = 0
C = 0 means there no constant term.
Example equation:
Graph the equation
The equation:
The points on the line are (− 4 , 2 ) , ( 0 , 0 ) and ( 4 , − 2 )
Thus, example equation is x = 4, it is parallel to the y − axis and it is called as vertical line.
