Formation of the general equation:
The general form of any equation contains the degree of variables in decreasing order.
The general form of a linear equation is a x + b = 0 .
The general form of a linear equation in two variables is
a x + b y + c = 0 .
The Slope-intercept form :
The Slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line:
y = m x + b
where, is the slope and is y-the intercept.

The point-slope form :
The point-slope form of the equation of a straight line:
y y 1 = m ( x x 1 )
We know that the general form of the equation of lines can be found using the slope and y-intercept.
Similarly, the general form of a quadratic equation is
a x 2 + b x + c = 0 .
Here, a, b, c, are real numbers and a 0 .
The roots of a quadratic equation are enough to write the equation in its general form.
Hence, in this way, we can find the general form of an equation.
