Hi,

Week3 Tutoria 4 solution:
Should it be C or 5C as high lighted below ? 
The answer will be totally different if that's the case.

Dear learner,
This C is a different C from the previous C. This is told in the respective tutorial.
Best  wishes,
Shubham

When the equation is written  in slope point form then y=-x/5 +c (slope m=-1/5, c is the intercept  at Y axis)
But, when equation is written in general standard form(Ax+ By +C=0) then 5y + x = c {[since c(intercept at Y axis) = -c/B, ]  here c = C}
Hope, it is clear now.
