Let's Tute answered
Rainwater is collected in the  underground tank at the rate of 30 cm³ / sec
 
Water collected in 1 sec  = 30 cm³
Water collected in x secs = 30x  cm³
Water collected in x secs =  y cm³
 
=> y = 30x
a linear equation y = 30x
30x - y = 0 ,30x -y +0=0
is standard form

Downstream =(x+y)km/hr
20(x+y)=2
X+Y=10.....(1)
4(x-y)=2
x-y=2....(2)

Solve both equations
x+y=10
x-y=2
2x=12
X=6
Substitute x=6in i
6+y=10
Y=4
Speed of rowing in still water is 6km/hr.
the speed of still water is 4km/hr
So option B is correct answer.

  • c)
    a = 1, b = 1
  • d)
    a = 4, b = 1
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Amit Sharma answered
Given Equations
ax + by = 3    {1}
3a - 2b = 1     {2}
x = 2, y = 1 ( given) 
Equation {1} becomes,
2a + b = 3      {3}
Substract equation {3} from {2}, we get,
2a + b - 3a + 2b = 3 - 1
-a + 3b  = 2
3b = 2 + a
b = (2+a) / 3 
Put the value of b in equation {3}, we get
2a + (2 +a ) / 3 = 3
(6a +a +2) / 3 = 3
7a + 2 = 9
a = 1
Now put value of a in {3}
2 + b = 3
b = 1
hence we get value of a and b i.e. 1 and 1 

Which of the following is not true?
  • a)
    The coefficients of x and y in a linear equation in x and y must be rational numbers.
  • b)
    There’s only one set of values of x and y that satisfy a linear equation in x and y.
  • c)
    A linear equation is an equation of first degree
  • d)
    For a linear equation in x the coefficient of y is zero.
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

The coefficients of x and y in a linear equation in x and y must be rational numbers.
The condition is only about the power of the variables being one and both coefficients not being zero at the same time. So as long as the coefficients are real numbers, the equation can be a linear equation.

  • a)
    -6
  • b)
    6
  • c)
    -4
  • d)
    4
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Anika Reddy answered
To find the value of k, we can substitute the given solution (2, -3) into the equation and solve for k.

Substituting the values of x and y into the equation:

3(2) + 4(-3) + k = 0

Simplifying the equation:

6 - 12 + k = 0

-6 + k = 0

k = 6

Therefore, the value of k is 6.

Explanation:

To determine the value of k, we can use the given solution (2, -3) and substitute it into the equation 3x + 4y + k = 0. The values of x and y represent the coordinates of the solution point.

Substituting the values of x and y into the equation, we get:
3(2) + 4(-3) + k = 0

Simplifying the equation gives us:
6 - 12 + k = 0

Combining like terms, we have:
-6 + k = 0

To isolate k, we can add 6 to both sides of the equation:
-6 + k + 6 = 0 + 6

Simplifying further:
k = 6

Therefore, the value of k is 6.

For two lines 2x + y = 1 and x – y = 2 if the x coordinate of the common point is 1 what is the y coordinate?
  • a)
    -1
  • b)
    2
  • c)
    -2
  • d)
    3
Correct answer is 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Solution:

Finding the y-coordinate of the common point:

Given two lines:

2x + y = 1 ... (Equation 1)

x - y = 2 ... (Equation 2)

We are given that the x-coordinate of the common point is 1.

Substituting x = 1 in Equation 2, we get:

1 - y = 2

y = -1

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the common point is -1.

Final Answer:

Option (a) -1 is the correct answer.

The linear equation 2x + 5y = 8 has:
  • a)
    A unique solution
  • b)
    Infinitely many solution
  • c)
    No solution
  • d)
    Two solution
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Explanation:
The given linear equation is 2x + 5y = 8. To determine the number of solutions, we can convert this equation into slope-intercept form.

2x + 5y = 8
5y = -2x + 8
y = (-2/5)x + 8/5

Now we can see that the equation has a slope of -2/5 and a y-intercept of 8/5. This means that the equation represents a line in the coordinate plane.

Infinitely many solutions:
Since the equation represents a line, there are three possible scenarios for the number of solutions:

1. The line intersects the x-axis and y-axis at a single point. This would mean that the equation has a unique solution.

2. The line is parallel to the x-axis and does not intersect the y-axis. This would mean that the equation has no solution.

3. The line is neither parallel to the x-axis nor the y-axis. This would mean that the equation has infinitely many solutions.

In this case, the line has a slope of -2/5, so it is not parallel to the x-axis or the y-axis. Therefore, the equation has infinitely many solutions.

All linear equations in two variables have ————– .
  • a)
    One solution
  • b)
    Infinitely many solutions
  • c)
    Three solutions
  • d)
    Two solution
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Khushi answered
In a linear equation in two variables,for every value of x there exists another value for y. so there are infinite solutions that is why option B is correct . UPvote if that helps :)

    Line parallel to X-axis at distance 3 units downwards
  • c)
    Line parallel to Y-axis at distance 3 units left side
  • d)
    Line parallel to Y-axis at distance 3 units on right side
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Anika Reddy answered
Solution:

Given equation is 2x - 4 = 3x - 1.

To find the line parallel to the Y-axis at a distance of 3 units on the right side, we need to first solve the given equation for x.

2x - 4 = 3x - 1
Subtracting 2x from both sides, we get
-4 = x - 1
Adding 1 to both sides, we get
-3 = x

Therefore, the value of x is -3.

To find the line parallel to the Y-axis at a distance of 3 units on the right side, we need to draw a vertical line passing through x = -3 and then shift it 3 units to the right.

Hence, the correct option is D - Line parallel to Y-axis at a distance of 3 units on the right side.

    p =1/3 +r
  • c)
    p = 3r
  • d)
    p = 3 + r
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Krithika Sen answered
Explanation:
Let the cost of rubber be 'r' and the cost of pencil be 'p'.
The given statement states that:
The cost of a pencil is thrice the cost of rubber.
This can be written as:
p = 3r
This is the required linear equation in two variables.

Option Analysis:
a) p = 3 - r
This equation is not equivalent to the given statement. It states that the cost of pencil is equal to 3 minus the cost of rubber, which is not the same as stating that the cost of pencil is thrice the cost of rubber.

b) p = 1/3r
This equation is also not equivalent to the given statement. It states that the cost of pencil is equal to one-third of the cost of rubber, which is not the same as stating that the cost of pencil is thrice the cost of rubber.

c) p = 3r
This equation is the correct equivalent linear equation in two variables of the given statement.

d) p = 3 r
This equation is not equivalent to the given statement. It states that the cost of pencil is equal to 3 and the cost of rubber is equal to 'r', which is not the same as stating that the cost of pencil is thrice the cost of rubber.

Therefore, the correct option is (c) p = 3r.

Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Shubham Iyer answered
Solution:

To check which equation represents the line passing through point P(2,-3), we need to substitute the coordinates of P into each equation and see which one satisfies the equation.

Let's check each option one by one:

a) x + 2y = 0
Substituting (2,-3) into this equation:
2 + 2(-3) = -4
The point (2,-3) does not satisfy the equation, so this is not the correct option.

b) x + y = 1
Substituting (2,-3) into this equation:
2 + (-3) = -1
The point (2,-3) does not satisfy the equation, so this is not the correct option.

c) 2x + y = 1
Substituting (2,-3) into this equation:
2(2) + (-3) = 1
The point (2,-3) satisfies the equation, so this is the correct option.

d) 2x + 2y = 0
Substituting (2,-3) into this equation:
2(2) + 2(-3) = -2
The point (2,-3) does not satisfy the equation, so this is not the correct option.

Therefore, the equation that represents the line passing through point P(2,-3) is 2x + y = 1, option C.

Hridoy Nair answered
Understanding the Equation
The equation given is x + 2y = 6. This is a linear equation in two variables, x and y. The goal is to rearrange this equation to match the options provided.
Rearranging the Equation
To rewrite the equation in the standard form (Ax + By + C = 0), we can manipulate the original equation:
- Start with x + 2y = 6.
- Subtract 6 from both sides to bring all terms to one side:
x + 2y - 6 = 0.
This matches the standard form Ax + By + C = 0 where A = 1, B = 2, and C = -6.
Matching with Options
Now, let’s compare the rearranged equation with the provided options:
- a) x - 2y + 6 = 0
- b) x + 2y - 6 = 0
- c) x - 2y - 6 = 0
- d) x + 2y + 6 = 0
The rearranged equation x + 2y - 6 = 0 corresponds exactly with option b.
Conclusion
Thus, the correct answer is option 'B': x + 2y - 6 = 0. This form clearly shows the relationship defined by the original equation.

- 3(1) - 2(-2) = 3 + 4 = 7
- This is correct, so (1, -2) is a solution.
2. Option b: (-2, 1)
- Substitute x = -2 and y = 1:
- 3(-2) - 2(1) = -6 - 2 = -8
- This is not equal to 7, so (-2, 1) is not a solution.
3. Option c: (5, 1)
- Substitute x = 5 and y = 1:
- 3(5) - 2(1) = 15 - 2 = 13
- This is not equal to 7, so (5, 1) is not a solution.
4. Option d: (1, 5)
- Substitute x = 1 and y = 5:
- 3(1) - 2(5) = 3 - 10 = -7
- This is not equal to 7, so (1, 5) is not a solution.
