Question 171448: Determine whether each quation is a linear equation. If so, write the equation in standar form and write the values of a,b, and c.
a) 2xsquared + 2ysquared = 18
b) x -y = 5
c) 2y - 3 = 7
d) 3xy + 5 = 10

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a) 2xsquared + 2ysquared = 18- no this is an equation for a circle.
b) x -y = 5 Yes ax+by=c is the general linear equation therefor a=1 b=-1 and c=5
c) 2y - 3 = 7 yes a=0 y=3 and c =10

d) 3xy + 5 = 10 no
