How many more such lines are there, and why? Sol. Since the given solution is (2, 14) Therefore, x = 2 and y = 14 Or, One equation is x + y = 2 + 14 = 16 x + y = 16 Second equation is x y = 2 14 = -12 x - y = -12 Third equation is y = 7x 0 = 7x y 7x - y = 0 In fact we can find infinite equations because through one point infinite lines pass.

So, putting the value x = 3 and y = 4 in equation (1) 3 x 4 = a x 3 + 7 12 = 3a + 7 12 7 = 3a 5 = 3a linear equations 6 Q4. The taxi fare in a city is as follows: For the first kilometer, the fare is Rs. 8 and for the subsequent distance it is Rs. 5 per kilometer. Taking the distance covered as x km and total fares as Rs. y, write a linear equation for this information, and draw its graph. Sol. Given, Taxi fare for first kilometer = Rs. 8 Taxi fare for subsequent distance = Rs. 5 Total distance covered = x Total fare = y Since the fare for first kilometer = Rs. 8 According to problem, Fare for (x 1) kilometer = 5(x-1) So, the total fare = 5(x-1) + 8 y = 5(x-1) + 8 y = 5x 5 + 8 y = 5x + 3 Hence, y = 5x + 3 is the required linear equation. Now the equation is y = 5x + 3 .equation (1) Now, putting the value x = 0 in equation (1) y = 5 x 0 + 3 y = 0 + 3 = 3 So the solution is (0, 3) Putting the value x = 1 in equation (1) y = 5 x 1 + 3 y = 5 + 3 = 8. So the solution is (1, 8) Putting the value x = 2 in equation (1) y = 5 x 2 + 3 y = 10 + 3 = 13. So the solution is (2, 13) So, the table of the different solutions of the equation is linear equations 7 Q5.

From the given Fig. 1, the solutions of the equation are (-1, 1), (0, 0) and (1, -1) Therefore the equation which satisfies these solutions is the correct equation. Equation (ii) x + y = 0 , satisfies these solutions. Proof: Putting the value x = -1 and y = 1 in the equation x + y = 0 L.H.S = x + y = -1 + 1 = 0 = R.H.S Putting the value x = 0 and y = 0 L.H.S = x + y = 0 + 0 = 0 = R.H.S Putting the value x = 1 and y = -1 L.H.S = x + y = 1 + (-1) = 1 1 = 0 = R.H.S Hence, option (ii) x + y = 0 is correct. From the given Fig. 2, the solutions of the equation are (-1, 3), (0, 2) and (2, 0) Therefore the equation which satisfies these solutions is the correct equation. Equation (i) y = -x + 2 , satisfies these solutions. Proof: Putting the value x = -1 and y = 3 in the equation y = -x + 2 x + y = 2 L.H.S = x + y = -1 + 3 = 2 = R.H.S Putting the value x = 0 and y = 2 L.H.S = x + y = 0 + 2 = 2 = R.H.S Putting the value x = 2 and y = 0 L.H.S = x + y = 2 + 0 = 2 = R.H.S Hence, option (i) y = -x + 2 is correct.

Let x units be the distance traveled by the body and y units be the work done by constant force. According to problem, y = 5x .equation (1) Now , putting the value x = 0 in equation (1) y = 5 x 0 = 0. So the solution is (0, 0) Putting the value x = 1 in equation (1) y = 5 x 1 = 5. So the solution is (1, 5) Putting the value x = 2 in equation (1) y = 5 x 2 = 10. So the solution is (2, 10) So, the table of the different solutions of the equation is linear equations 10 (i) When x = 2 units (distance) Putting the value x in equation (1) y = 5x y = 5 x 2 = 10. Hence, Work done = 10. (ii) When x = 0 units (distance) Putting the value x in equation (1) y = 5x y = 5 x 0 = 0. Hence, Work done = 0. Q7.

Write a linear equation which this data satisfies. (You may take their contributions as Rs. x and Rs. y). Draw the graph of the same. Sol. Let the contribution of Yamini be x and that of Fatima be y. According to problem, x + y = 100 ..(1) Now , putting the value x = 0 in equation (1) 0 + y = 100 y = 100 . So the solution is (0, 100) Putting the value x = 50 in equation (1) 50 + y = 100, y = 100 50 y = 50 . So the solution is (50, 50) Putting the value x = 100 in equation (1) 100 + y = 100, Or, y = 100 100 y = 0 . So the solution is (100, 0) So, the table of the different solutions of the equation is linear equations 11 Q8.
