C Program to Solve any Linear Equation in One Variable

This is a C Program to solve linear equation in one variable.

Here is source code of the C Program to Solve any Linear Equation in One Variable. The C program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.

```
#include <stdio.h>
```
```
#include <string.h>
```

float solve_for_y(float a, float b, float c) {

```
	float Y = Y = -(b + c) / a;
```
```
	return Y;
```
```
}
```
```
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
```
```
	float a, b, c, Y;
```
```
	printf(
```

			"\nEnter a linear equation in one variable of the form aY + b + c = 0 ");

	printf("\nEnter the value of a, b, c respectively: ");

```
	scanf("%f%f%f", &a, &b, &c);
```
```
	Y = solve_for_y(a, b, c);
```
```
	printf("\nSolution is Y = %f", Y);
```
```
	return 0;
```
```
}
```

Output:

$ gcc SolveLinearEquation.c
$ ./a.out
 
Enter a linear equation in one variable of the form aY + b + c = 0 
Enter the value of a, b, c respectively: 2 4 8
Solution is Y = -6.000000
