How do I work with equations that are passed on in the goal/query of prolog?

I have this scenario wherein I get a linear equation in the Prolog query like below: ?- myquery( 3X + 5Y = 10, Result). So my query has an equation 3X + 5Y = 10, which in general assumes the form AX + BY = C, where A=3, B=5 and C=10. Now, in my…
