What does the variable 'A' represent in the standard form of a linear equation?

Back

In the standard form Ax + By = C, 'A' represents the coefficient of the x-term.

Front

What does the variable 'B' represent in the standard form of a linear equation?

Back

In the standard form Ax + By = C, 'B' represents the coefficient of the y-term.

Front

What does the variable 'C' represent in the standard form of a linear equation?

Back

In the standard form Ax + By = C, 'C' represents the constant term.
