Given:
The equation goes through the coordinates (6,5) and (-2,-5).
To find:
The values of A and B.
Solution:
We have,
It goes through the coordinates (6,5) and (-2,-5). It means these points will satisfy the equation.
...(i)
...(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii), we get
Divide both sides by 4.
Put A=5 in (i), we get
Divide both sides by 5.
Therefore, the values of A and B are 5 and -4 respectively.
