Sorry, I cannot provide a practice test/quiz or MCQ (Multiple Choice Questions) with solutions without knowing the specific chapter or subject you are referring to.

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.

    x2 + 3 = 5x – 3
  • d)
    (x – 2)2 = x2 + 8
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

A) 2x 3 = 7x is not a linear equation because it contains a constant term (3) which makes it a non-linear equation. Linear equations only have variables with a power of 1 and no constant terms.

The cost of a pencil is thrice the cost of rubber.The equivalent linear equation in two variables of above statement is:
  • a)
    p = 3 -r
  • b)
    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.

A linear equation in one variable is an equation of the form ………..
  • a)
    ax + b = 0, where a, b , c are real numbers
  • b)
    ax = c, where a and c are real numbers
  • c)
    by = c, where band c are real number
  • d)
    All of above
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Preethi Singh answered
A linear equation is an equation of a straight line, written in one variable. The only power of the variable is 1. Linear equations in one variable may take the form a x + b = 0, ax+b=0, ax+b=0 and are solved using basic algebraic operations

Difference between the cost of a carpet(C) and a durries(D) is Rs.200. If the carpet is the costlier one of the two, which of the following represents this information?
a)C – D = 200
b)C – D = 100
c)D – C = 200
d)C + D = 200
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Given Information:

- The difference between the cost of a carpet (C) and a durries (D) is Rs.200.
- The carpet is the costlier one of the two.

To represent this information, we need to express the difference in cost between the two items.

Difference in Cost:

The difference in cost between the carpet and the durries can be calculated by subtracting the cost of the durries from the cost of the carpet.

C - D = 200

Explanation:

Option A is the correct answer because it represents the given information accurately.

a) C - D = 200

- In this equation, C represents the cost of the carpet and D represents the cost of the durries.
- The subtraction operation (C - D) represents the difference between the cost of the carpet and the cost of the durries.
- The result of the subtraction operation is 200, which means that the cost of the carpet is Rs.200 more than the cost of the durries.

The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the given information.

b) C - D = 100

- This equation suggests that the difference in cost between the carpet and the durries is 100. However, the given information states that the difference is 200.
- This option does not match the given information.

c) D - C = 200

- This equation suggests that the difference in cost between the durries and the carpet is 200. However, the given information states that the carpet is the costlier one.
- This option contradicts the given information.

d) C * D = 200

- This equation suggests that the product of the cost of the carpet and the cost of the durries is 200. However, the given information does not mention anything about the product of the costs.
- This option does not match the given information.

Therefore, option A (C - D = 200) is the correct representation of the given information.

Which one of the following options is true for the equation y = 3x+5y?

  • b)
    It has only two solutions
  • c)
    It has infinitely many solutions
  • d)
    None of the above
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Understanding the Equation
The given equation is y = 3x + 5y. To determine the number of solutions it has, we can rearrange it.
Rearranging the Equation
1. Start with the original equation:
- y = 3x + 5y
2. Subtract 5y from both sides:
- y - 5y = 3x
- -4y = 3x
3. Now, express y in terms of x:
- y = -3/4 x
Analyzing the Equation
This final form, y = -3/4 x, is a linear equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where:
- m (slope) = -3/4
- b (y-intercept) = 0
Determining the Solutions
- Unique Solution: A unique solution would occur if the equation represented a single line that intersects the axes at one point. However, this equation represents a straight line.
- Infinitely Many Solutions: Since it is a linear equation, every point (x, y) on this line is a solution to the equation. Thus, there are infinitely many solutions.
Conclusion
- The correct answer is option C: it has infinitely many solutions. This is because any value of x will yield a corresponding value of y along the line defined by the equation y = -3/4 x.

Which of the following points is a solution of the equation x−2y=4?
  • a)
    (0, 2)

Understanding the Linear Equation
The given equation is in the form of ax + by + c = 0. To identify the coefficients, we need to rearrange the equation properly.
Given Equation
The equation provided is:
7/2 x + 5/4 y = -9
Rearranging the Equation
To express it in the standard form (ax + by + c = 0), we can move -9 to the left side of the equation:
7/2 x + 5/4 y + 9 = 0
Now, it fits the standard form where:
Identifying Coefficients
- Coefficient of x (a) = 7/2
- Coefficient of y (b) = 5/4
- Constant term (c) = 9
Analyzing the Options
Now, let’s analyze the options provided:
- a) 7/2, 5/4, -9
- b) -7/2, 5/4, -9
- c) 7/2, 5/4, 9
- d) -7/2, 5/4, 9
The correct coefficients from our rearrangement are:
- a = 7/2
- b = 5/4
- c = 9
Correct Answer
Thus, the correct coefficients are:
- a = 7/2
- b = 5/4
- c = 9
However, option 'd' states -7/2, 5/4, 9, which is incorrect.
The correct answer should reflect the positive values of a and c. Therefore, the correct answer should actually be option 'c' which is 7/2, 5/4, and 9.
Make sure to verify the signs and values while identifying coefficients!

Imk Pathshala answered
To determine which pair (x, y) is a solution to the equation 3x − 2y = 7, we substitute each pair into the equation and check if it satisfies the equation.
  1. Option A: (1, −2)
    Substituting: 3(1) − 2(−2) = 3 + 4 = 7 (satisfies the equation)
  2. Option B: (−2, 1)
    Substituting: 3(−2) − 2(1) = −6 − 2 = −8 (does not satisfy the equation)
  3. Option C: (5, 1)
    Substituting: 3(5) − 2(1) = 15 − 2 = 13 (does not satisfy the equation)
  4. Option D: (1, 5)
    Substituting: 3(1) − 2(5) = 3 − 10 = −7 (does not satisfy the equation)
The correct answer is:
Option A: (1, −2)
