Step-by-step explanation:Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    120*x+y-(1200)=0

Equation of a Straight Line

1.1     Solve   120x+y-1200  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.
