Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables

Exercise 3.1

1. Form the pair of linear equations in the following problems, and find their solutions graphically.

(i) 10 students of Class X took part in a Mathematics quiz. If the number of girls is 4 more than the number of boys, find the number of boys and girls who took part in the quiz.

(ii) 5 pencils and 7 pens together cost Rs 50, whereas 7 pencils and 5 pens together cost Rs 46. Find the cost of one pencil and that of one pen.

2. On comparing the ratios (frac{a_1}{a_2},frac{b_1}{b_2}) and (frac{c_1}{c_2}), find out whether the lines representing the following pairs of linear equations intersect at a point, are parallel or coincident:

(i)   5x– 4y+ 8 = 0  and  7x+ 6y– 9 = 0

(ii) 9x+ 3y+ 12 = 0  and  18x+ 6y+ 24 = 0

(iii) 6x– 3y+ 10 = 0  and  2x– y+ 9 = 0

3. On comparing the ratios (frac{a_1}{a_2},frac{b_1}{b_2}) and (frac{c_1}{c_2}), find out whether the following pair of linear equations are consistent, or inconsistent.

(i) 3x + 2y = 5;  2x – 3y = 7

(ii) 2x – 3y = 8;  4x – 6y = 9

(iii) (frac{3}{2}x+frac{5}{3}y=7);  9x – 10y = 14

(iv) 5x – 3y = 11;  –10x + 6y = –22

(v) (frac{4}{3}x+2y=8);  2x + 3y = 12

4. Which of the following pairs of linear equations are consistent/inconsistent? If consistent, obtain the solution graphically:

(i) x + y= 5, 2x + 2y=10

(ii) x – y= 8, 3x – 3y= 16

(iii) 2x + y – 6 = 0, 4x – 2y – 4 = 0

(iv) 2x– 2y– 2 = 0, 4x– 4y– 5 = 0

5. Half the perimeter of a rectangular garden, whose length is 4 m more than its width, is 36 m. Find the dimensions of the garden.

6. Given the linear equation 2x+ 3y– 8 = 0, write another linear equation in two variables such that the geometrical representation of the pair so formed is:

(i) intersecting lines

(ii) parallel lines

(iii) coincident lines

7. Draw the graphs of the equations x– y+ 1 = 0 and 3x+ 2y– 12 = 0. Determine the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle formed by these lines and the x-axis, and shade the triangular region.
