Dear users,

I'm wondering if it is possible to visualize function (plane) given by this equation:

Ax + By + Cz - D == 0

I tried to use Plot3D function, but it allows only 2 variables.

How to do that?

regards

Ax + By + Cz - D = 0
<==> Cz = -Ax - By + D
<==> z = -(A/C)x - (B/C)y + D/C, assuming C isn't 0.
Now you have z as a function of the variables x and y.
