One equation of a pair of dependent linear equations is - 5x+7y=2. Write the second equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any multiple of the given equation is also a dependent linear equation

From the equation

-5x+7y=2

Multiplying all through by any number, say 2

2 (-5x) + 2 (7y) = 2 (2)

-10x+14y=4 is a dependent linear equation for - 5x+7y=2

If you don't fancy using a multiple, you can write the gradient equation y=mx+c

-5x+7y=2

7y=5x+2

Dividing all through by 7 gives the equation as

y=5x/7 + 2/7
