To rewrite a polynomial in the form \( ax + by + c \), we need a specific polynomial to work with. However, since you haven't provided a specific polynomial, let’s go through the general method, and you can apply it to your polynomial.

1. **Identify terms involving the variables \( x \) and \( y \):**
- If the polynomial includes terms like \( x^2, xy, y^2, x, y, \) and constants, isolate the terms involving \( x \), \( y \), and constants separately.

2. **Identify coefficients:**
- The coefficient of the \( x \) term will be \( a \).
- The coefficient of the \( y \) term will be \( b \).
- The constant term will be \( c \).

3. **Write in the form \( ax + by + c \):**
- Once you isolate the \( x \) terms, \( y \) terms, and the constant, arrange them in the desired format.

### Example

Let’s say we have the polynomial:

\[
2x^2 + 3y + 5x - 4 + 6y^2
\]

We can rewrite it:

1. **Identify and combine like terms:**
- Combine the \( x \) terms: \( 5x \)
- Combine the \( y \) terms: \( 3y \)
- The constants: There are no constant terms in this case after combining.

However, in this polynomial, we see \( 2x^2 \) and \( 6y^2 \), which are not linear terms. We can't express this polynomial in the specific form \( ax + by + c \) as is.

If we instead had a polynomial like:

\[
4x + 3y + 7
\]

We can write it as:

\[
ax + by + c
\]

Where:
- \( a = 4 \)
- \( b = 3 \)
- \( c = 7 \)

### Conclusion

So, you can apply this method to find coefficients \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) for your specific polynomial. If you provide a specific polynomial, I can help you rewrite it and identify the coefficients directly.
