Find four solutions for the following equation: 12x + 5y= 0
12x+5y = 0
Take x = 1,
12൱ + 5y = 0
Þ 5y+12 = 0 ⇒ 5y = -12 ∴ y =
Take x = 2,
12൲ + 5y = 0 ⇒ 24+5y = 0 ⇒ 5y = -24 ∴ y =
Take x = 3,
12൳ + 5y = 0
36+5y = 0 ⇒ 5y = -36 ∴ y =
Take x = 4,
12൴ + 5y = 0
48+5y = 0 ⇒ 5y = -48 ⇒ y =
∴ The four solutions of the given equation are x = 1, y =
; x = 2, y =
, x = 3, y =
and x = 4, y =
.
