Answer:

The equation given is 5x – 4y = 20.
(i) (4, 0)
Putting the value in the given equation we have
$LHS : 5 (4) - 4 (0) = 20 RHS : 20 LHS = RHS$
Thus, (4, 0) is a solution of the given equation.
(ii) (0, 5)
Putting the value in the given equation we have
$LHS : 5 (0) - 4 (5) = 0 - 20 = - 20 RHS : 20 LHS \neq RHS$
Thus, (0, 5) is not a solution of the given equation.
(iii) $(- 2, \frac{5}{2})$
Putting the value in the given equation we have
$LHS : 5 (- 2) - 4 (\frac{5}{2}) = - 10 - 10 = - 20 RHS : 20 LHS \neq RHS$
Thus, $(- 2, \frac{5}{2})$ is not a solution of the given equation.
(iv) (0, –5)
Putting the value in the given equation we have
$LHS : 5 (0) - 4 (- 5) = 0 + 20 = 20 RHS : 20 LHS = RHS$
Thus, (0, –5) is a solution of the given equation.
(v) $(2, \frac{- 5}{2})$
Putting the value in the given equation we have
$LHS : 5 (2) - 4 (\frac{- 5}{2}) = 10 + 10 = 20 RHS : 20 LHS = RHS$

Answer:

Given equation: y = 3x

When x = -2, y = -6.
When x = -1, y = -3.
Thus, we have the following table:

x	-2	-1
y	-6	-3

Now plot the points (-2,-6), (-1, -3) on a graph paper.
Join the points and extend the line in both the directions.
The line segment is the required graph of the equation.
From the graph we can see that when x = 2, y = 6

Also, when x = -2, y = -6.

Answer:

Given equation: x + 2y - 3 = 0
Or, x + 2y = 3
When y = 0, x + 0 = 3 ⇒ x = 3
When y = 1, x + 2 = 3 ⇒ x = 3-2 = 1
When y = 2, x + 4 = 3 ⇒ x = 3 - 4 = -1
Thus, we have the following table:

x	3	1	-1
y	0	1	2

Now plot the points (3,0) ,(1,1) and (-1,2) on the graph paper.
Join the points and extend the line in both the directions.
The line segment is the required graph of the equation.

When x = 5,

y = \frac{3 - x}{2} \Rightarrow y = \frac{3 - 5}{2} \Rightarrow y = - 1

Similarly, from the graph we can see that when x = −5, y = 4.

Page No 161:

Answer:

Given equation :

$2 x - 3 y = 5 \Rightarrow 2 x = 3 y + 5 \Rightarrow x = \frac{3 y + 5}{2}$
When, $y = - 1, x = \frac{- 3 + 5}{2} = \frac{2}{2} = 1$

When, $y = - 3, x = \frac{- 9 + 5}{2} = \frac{- 4}{2} = - 2$
Thus, we have the following table:

$x$	1	-2
$y$	-1	-3

Plot the points

(- 2, - 3), (1, - 1)

on the graph paper and extend the line in both directions.

(i) When x = 4:

4 = \frac{3 y + 5}{2} \Rightarrow 8 = 3 y + 5 \Rightarrow 3 y = 8 - 5 = 3 \Rightarrow 3 y = 3 \Rightarrow y = 1

(ii) When y = 3:

x = \frac{3 y + 5}{2} = \frac{14}{2} = 7

Answer:

Given equation:
$2 x + y = 6 \Rightarrow y = 6 - 2 x$
When, $x = 0$ , $y = 6 - 0 = 6$ .
When, $x = 1$ , $y = 6 - 2 = 4$ .
When, $x = 2$ , $y = 6 - 4 = 2$ .
Thus, we have the following table:

$x$	0	1	2
$y$	6	4	2

Plot the points

(0, 6), (1, 4)

and

(2, 2)

on the graph paper. Join these points and extend the line.

Clearly, the graph cuts the

x - a x i s

P (3, 0)

Answer:

Given equation: $3 x + 2 y = 6$ . Then,

$2 y = 6 - 3 x \Rightarrow y = \frac{6 - 3 x}{2}$

When $x = 2$ , $y = \frac{6 - 6}{2} = 0$

When $x = 4$ , $y = \frac{6 - 12}{2} = - 3$
Thus, we get the following table:

$x$	2	4
$y$	0	-3

Plot the points

(2, 0), (4, - 3)

on the graph paper. Join the points and extend the graph in both the directions.

Clearly, the graph cuts the

y - a x i s

at P(0,3).

Answer:

$3 x - 2 y = 4 \Rightarrow 2 y = 3 x - 4 \Rightarrow y = \frac{3 x - 4}{2}$
When x = 0, $y = \frac{3 \times 0 - 4}{2} = \frac{0 - 4}{2} = \frac{- 4}{2} = - 2$
When x = 2, $y = \frac{3 \times 2 - 4}{2} = \frac{6 - 4}{2} = \frac{2}{2} = 1$
When x = –2, $y = \frac{3 \times (- 2) - 4}{2} = \frac{- 6 - 4}{2} = \frac{- 10}{2} = - 5$
Thus, the points on the line 3x – 2y = 4 are as given in the following table:

x	0	2	–2
y	–2	1	–5

Plotting the points (0, –2), (2, 1) and (–2, –5) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line 3x – 2y = 4.

x + y - 3 = 0 \Rightarrow y = - x + 3

When x = 0,

y = - 0 + 3 = 3

When x = 1,

y = - 1 + 3 = 2

When x = –1,

y = - (- 1) + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4

Thus, the points on the line x + y – 3 = 0 are as given in the following table:

x	0	1	–1
y	3	2	4

Plotting the points (0, 3), (1, 2) and (–1, 4) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line x + y – 3 = 0.

It can be seen that the lines 3x – 2y = 4 and x + y – 3 = 0 intersect at the point (2, 1).

Answer:

$4 x + 3 y = 24 \Rightarrow 3 y = - 4 x + 24 \Rightarrow y = \frac{- 4 x + 24}{3}$
When x = 0, $y = \frac{- 4 \times 0 + 24}{3} = \frac{0 + 24}{3} = \frac{24}{3} = 8$
When x = 3, $y = \frac{- 4 \times 3 + 24}{3} = \frac{- 12 + 24}{3} = \frac{12}{3} = 4$
When x = 6, $y = \frac{- 4 \times 6 + 24}{3} = \frac{- 24 + 24}{3} = \frac{0}{3} = 0$
Thus, the points on the line 4x + 3y = 24 are as given in the following table:

x	0	3	6
y	8	4	0

Plotting the points (0, 8), (3, 4) and (6, 0) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line 4x + 3y = 24.

(i) It can be seen that the line 4x + 3y = 24 intersects the x-axis at (6, 0) and y-axis at (0, 8).

(ii) The triangle formed by the line and the coordinate axes is a right triangle right angled at the origin.

∴ Area of the triangle =

\frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 8

= 24 square units

Answer:

$2 x + y = 6 \Rightarrow y = - 2 x + 6$
When x = 0, $y = - 2 \times 0 + 6 = 0 + 6 = 6$
When x = 1, $y = - 2 \times 1 + 6 = - 2 + 6 = 4$
When x = 2, $y = - 2 \times 2 + 6 = - 4 + 6 = 2$

Thus, the points on the line 2x + y = 6 are as given in the following table:

x	0	1	2
y	6	4	2

Plotting the points (0, 6), (1, 4) and (2, 2) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line 2x + y = 6.

2 x - y + 2 = 0 \Rightarrow y = 2 x + 2

When x = 0,

y = 2 \times 0 + 2 = 0 + 2 = 2

When x = 1,

y = 2 \times 1 + 2 = 2 + 2 = 4

When x = –1,

y = 2 \times (- 1) + 2 = - 2 + 2 = 0

Thus, the points on the line 2x – y + 2 = 0 are as given in the following table:

x	0	1	–1
y	2	4	0

Plotting the points (0, 2), (1, 4) and (–1, 0) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line 2x – y + 2 = 0.

The shaded region represents the area bounded by the lines 2x + y = 6, 2x – y + 2 = 0 and the x-axis. This represents a triangle.

It can be seen that the lines intersect at the point C(1, 4). Draw CD perpendicular from C on the x-axis.

Height = CD = 4 units

Base = AB = 4 units

∴ Area of the shaded region = Area of ∆ABC =

\frac{1}{2} \times AB \times CD = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 4

= 8 square units

Answer:

$x - y = 1 \Rightarrow y = x - 1$
When x = 0, $y = 0 - 1 = - 1$
When x = 1, $y = 1 - 1 = 0$
When x = 2, $y = 2 - 1 = 1$

Thus, the points on the line x – y = 1 are as given in the following table:

x	0	1	2
y	–1	0	1

Plotting the points (0, –1), (1, 0) and (2, 1) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line x – y = 1.

2 x + y = 8 \Rightarrow y = - 2 x + 8

When x = 1,

y = - 2 \times 1 + 8 = - 2 + 8 = 6

When x = 2,

y = - 2 \times 2 + 8 = - 4 + 8 = 4

When x = 3,

y = - 2 \times 3 + 8 = - 6 + 8 = 2

Thus, the points on the line 2x + y = 8 are as given in the following table:

x	1	2	3
y	6	4	2

Plotting the points (1, 6), (2, 4) and (3, 2) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line 2x + y = 8.

The shaded region represents the area bounded by the lines x – y = 1, 2x + y = 8 and the y-axis. This represents a triangle.

It can be seen that the lines intersect at the point C(3, 2). Draw CD perpendicular from C on the y-axis.

Height = CD = 3 units

Base = AB = 9 units

∴ Area of the shaded region = Area of ∆ABC =

\frac{1}{2} \times AB \times CD = \frac{1}{2} \times 9 \times 3

\frac{27}{2}

Answer:

$x + y = 6 \Rightarrow y = - x + 6$
When x = 0, $y = - 0 + 6 = 6$
When x = 1, $y = - 1 + 6 = 5$
When x = 3, $y = - 3 + 6 = 3$

Thus, the points on the line x + y = 6 are as given in the following table:

x	0	1	3
y	6	5	3

Plotting the points (0, 6), (1, 5) and (3, 3) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line x + y = 6.

x - y = 2 \Rightarrow y = x - 2

When x = 0,

y = 0 - 2 = - 2

When x = 2,

y = 2 - 2 = 0

When x = –1,

y = - 1 - 2 = - 3

Thus, the points on the line x – y = 2 are as given in the following table:

x	0	2	–1
y	–2	0	–3

Plotting the points (0, –2), (2, 0) and (–1, –3) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line x – y = 2.

It can be seen that the lines x + y = 6 and x – y = 2 intersect at the point (4, 2).

Answer:

Let the contribution of A and B be ₹ x and ₹ y, respectively.

Total contribution of A and B = ₹ x + ₹ y = ₹ (x + y)

It is given that the total contribution of A and B is ₹ 100.

∴ x + y = 100

This is the linear equation satisfying the the given data.

x + y = 100

⇒ y = 100 – x

When x = 10, y = 100 – 10 = 90

When x = 40, y = 100 – 40 = 60

When x = 60, y = 100 – 60 = 40

Thus, the points on the line x + y = 100 are as given in the following table:

x	10	40	60
y	90	60	40

Plotting the points (10, 90), (40, 60) and (60, 40) and drawing a line passing through these points, we obtain the graph of of the line x + y = 100.

When $y = 3$ , $x = \frac{30}{3} = 10$ .

When $y = - 3$ , $x = \frac{0}{3} = 0$ .

Thus, we have the following table:

$x$	5	10	0

When $x = 2$ , $y = 2$ ... and so on
Thus, we get the following table:

$x$	1	2
$y$	1	2

Plot the points on the graph paper. Join the points and extend them in both the directions.
We can see the linear equation

x - y = 0

passes through the point (1,1).

Answer:

(b) x + y = 0
Given points: $(- 2, 2), (0, 0)$ and $(2, - 2)$
We have to check which equation satisfies the given points.
Let us check for (a) $x - y = 0$
Substituting $(- 2, 2)$ in the equation, we get: $x - y = - 2 - 2 = - 4$
Substituting $(0, 0)$ in the equation, we get: $x - y = 0 - 0 = 0$
Substituting $(2, - 2)$ in the equation, we get: $x - y = 2 + 2 = 4$
So, the given points do not satisfy the equation.
Now, let us check (b) $x + y = 0$
Substituting $(- 2, 2)$ in the equation, we get: $x + y = - 2 + 2 = 0$
Substituting $(0, 0)$ in the equation, we get: $x + y = 0 + 0 = 0$
Substituting $(2, - 2)$ in the equation, we get: $x + y = 2 - 2 = 0$
So, the given points satisfy the equation.
Similarly, we can check other equations and find that the given points will not satisfy the equations.
Hence, each of $(- 2, 2), (0, 0)$ and $(2, - 2)$ is a solution of the linear equation $x + y = 0$ .

Answer:

Given equation: $3 y = a x + 7$ .
Also, $(3, 4)$ lies on the graph of the equation.
Putting $x = 3, y = 4$ in the equation, we get:
$3 \times 4 = 3 a + 7$
⇒ $12 = 3 a + 7$
⇒ $3 a = 12 - 7 = 5$
⇒ $a = \frac{5}{3}$
Hence, the correct answer is option (b).
