You look at the sign behind the second term. Here are some examples...

2x + 8 - 4x 
You are going to subtract 2x - 4x because there is a negative sign behind the 4x.

8y + 1 + y
You are going to add 8y + y because there is a positive sign behind the y.

4 + 2x - 5 + 7x
You are going to subtract 4 - 5 because there is a negative sign behind the 5.
You are going to add 2x + 7x because there is a positive sign behind the 7x.

In the xy-plane, the equations x + 2y = 10 and
konstantin123 [22]

By solving given equations, the value of c is 30.

Given two equations

x + 2y = 10 and

3x + 6y = c

These lines represents the same line for some constant c.

Value of c:

x + 2y = 10-------------(1)

3x + 6y = c-------------(2)

Dividing equation (2) by 3

\frac{3x}{3}+ \frac{6y}{3} =\frac{c}{3}

After solving the above equation, we get

x + 2y = c/3-----------(3)

Remember that a line is written as ax + by = c, in our case, both lines have a =1 and b = 2. Therefore, in orther that the two lines are equal, we need that, 10 = c/3

c = 10 × 3 = 30

c = 30

Therefore,

The value of c is 30.
