This teaching derivation has second-context AI mathematical and bilingual semantic review, limited to the model and assumptions stated in this question. It has no human review or new Lean proof and does not promote the original question or MKO to Canonical truth.

## Original question and givens

In R² with usual operations consider a*x+b*y=c with [a,b,c]=[0, 2, 3]. Give (equation,classification,subspace?,certificate). Classification is whole_R2, empty_set, homogeneous_line or affine_line_not_through_zero.

## Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

## Step-by-step derivation

S001 · calculationBefore

affine nonempty particular y coordinate := div(3, 2)

After

affine nonempty particular y coordinate = 3/2

Conditions: none

Compute exactly from original field roles and established intermediates,retaining denominators,signs,indices and the complete carrier.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001





S002 · calculationBefore

affine particular first term := mul(0, 0)

After

affine particular first term = 0

Conditions: none

Compute exactly from original field roles and established intermediates,retaining denominators,signs,indices and the complete carrier.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001





S003 · calculationBefore

affine particular second term := mul(2, 3/2)

After

affine particular second term = 3

Conditions: none

Compute exactly from original field roles and established intermediates,retaining denominators,signs,indices and the complete carrier.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002





S004 · calculationBefore

affine particular equation value := sum(0, 3)

After

affine particular equation value = 3

Conditions: none

Compute exactly from original field roles and established intermediates,retaining denominators,signs,indices and the complete carrier.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S003





S005 · impliesBefore

nonzero original normal=[0, 2];nonzero right side=3;particular real solution=[0, 3/2];checked equation=3

After

nonempty affine line;zero gives0 rather than nonzero right side;affine_line_not_through_zero;subspace=No

Conditions: none

The nonzero normal gives a line,and the checked real solution rules out emptiness.But the zero vector has left side0 rather than nonzero c,so this affine line omits zero and is not a subspace.Do not silently translate it into a homogeneous line.

## Reverse checks


- S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
- S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute affine particular equation value with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
- S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute affine particular second term with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
- S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute affine particular first term with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
- S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute affine nonempty particular y coordinate with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.





## Result

([0, 2, 3], affine_line_not_through_zero, No, affine_line_not_through_zero)

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
