Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 1

If 12x + 13y = 29 and 13x + 12y = 21, find x + y.

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 1
12x + 13y = 29 .....(1)

13x + 12y = 21....(2)

Adding (1) and (2)

25x + 25y = 50

x + y = 2

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 2

Solve graphically: 2x - 3y = 7 and 5x + y = 9

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 2
Given equations are,

2x − 3y = 7 ....(1)

and 5x + y = 9 ....(2)

Multiply equation (2) by 3, we get

15x + 3y = 27 ....(3)

Add equations (1) and (3),

17x = 34

⇒ x = 2

Put this value in equation (2), we get 5(2) + y = 9 ⇒ 10 + y = 9

⇒ y = −1

Therefore, the solution is x = 2,y = −1.

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 3

Solve equations using substitution method: x - y = 3 and x + y = 0

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 3
x - y = 3 ….(1)

x + y = 0 ...(2)

From equation 1 : y = x - 3

Substitute the value of y in equation 2: x + y = 0x + x - 3 = 0

2x = 3X= 3 / 2

Now, Substitute x = 3 / 2 in equation 1: x - y = 3x

3 / 2 - y = 3y = 3 / 2 - 3y = -3 / 2.

Therefore the solution is: x = 3 / 2 and y = -3 / 2

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 4

Solve for x and y. If 2x + 3y = 8 and x + 2y = 5.

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 4
2x + 3y = 8……...(1) and x + 2y = 5……..(2)

From (1), we get x = .....(3)

From (2), we get x = 5 - 2y …...(4)

= 5 - 2y or 8x - 3y = 10 - 4y or 3y = 10 - 4y or y = 2

Using y = 2 in (4), we get x = 5 - 4 = 1.

Therefore, x = 1, y = 2

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 5

Mr. Joshi has 430 cabbage-plants which he wants to plant out. Some 25 to a row and the rest 20 to a row.lftherearetobe 18 rows in all. How many rows of 25 will there be?

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 5
Let 'x' rows of 25 and 'y' rows of 20.

Given, 25x + 20y = 430

5x + 4y = 86 ....(1)

Also x + y = 18 ....(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 4, we get 4x + 4y = 72 ....(3)

Subtract equations (1) and (3), we get x = 14

Hence, answer is 14.

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 6

Solve following pair of equations by equating the coefficient method:

3x - 7y = 35

2x + 5y = 4

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 6
Multiply the equation 3x − 7y = 35 by 2 and equation 2x + 5y = 4 by 3 to make the coefficients of x equal. Then we get the equations

6x − 14y = 70.........(1)

6x + 15y = 12.........(2)

Subtract Equation (2) from Equation (1) to eliminate x, because the coefficients of x are the same.

So, we get (6x − 6x) + (−14y − 15y) = 70 − 12

i.e. −29y = 58 i.e. y = −2

Substituting this value of y in (2), we get

6x − 30 = 12

i.e. 6x = 42 i.e. x = 7

Hence, the solution of the equations is x = 7, y = −2.

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 7

In covering a distance of 30 km, Abhay takes 2 hours more than Sameer. lf Abhay doubles his speed, then he would take 1 hour less than Sameer. What is Abhay’s speed? (in km/hr)

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 7
Let Abhay's speed be x km/hr.

Then, 30 / x - 30 / 2x = 3

⇒ 6x = 30 ⇒ x = 5km/hr.

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 8

A two-digit number is 3 more than six times the sum of its digits. If 18 is added to the number obtained by interchanging by interchanging the digits, we get the original number. Find the number.

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 8
Let the tens and the units digits in the number be x and y, respectively. So, the number may be written as 10x + y. According to the given condition. 10x + y = 6(x + y) + 3 ⇒ 4x - 5y = 3

(i) If we interchange the digits of Original number then we get new number, i.e 10y + x

According to the given condition 10y + x + 18 = 10x + y ⇒ 9x - 9y = 18 ⇒ x — y = 2

(ii) Now multiplying equation (ii) by 4. we get, 4x - 4y = 8 ....(iii) On subtracting (iii)

from (i). we get, 4x - 5y - (4x - 4y) = 3 - 8 A y = 5 On substituting y = 5 in (ii). we get, x -

5 = 2 ⇒ x = 7 A number is 10x + y = 10(7) + 5 = 75

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 9

Using graphical method check whether the given equation is consistent: 6x + 7y = 49

and 3x + 7y = 28

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 9
6x + 7y = 49….(1)

3x + 7y = 28….(2)

From equation (1) assume the value of x and y to satisfy the equation to zero.

6x + 7y - 49 = 0….(3)

Put x = 0, y = 7 in equation

(3) 6(0) +7(7) - 49 = 0

49 - 49 = 0

0 = 0 Again put x = 7,y = 1 in equation...(3)

6(7) + 7(1) - 49 = 0

42 + 7 - 49 = 0

49 - 49 = 0

0 = 0

Now plotting (0, 7), (7,1) and joining them, we get a straight line.

From equation (2) assume the value of x and y to satisfy the equation to zero.

3x + 7y - 28 = 0 put x = 0, y = 4

in equation...(4)

3(0) + 7(4) - 28 = 0

28 - 28 = 0

0 = 0 x = 7, y = 1 in equation...(4)

3(7) + 7(1) - 28 = 0

21 + 7 - 28 = 0

28 - 28 = 0

0 = 0

Plotting (0, 4), (7,1) and joining them, we get another straight line. These lines intersect at the point (7,1) and therefore the solution of the equation is x = 7, y = 1. In the above graph, the lines intersect each other at a point. In this case, the system will have exactly one solution. So, the equations are consistent.

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 10

Solve the following pair of equations 31x - 42y = 51; 42x - 31y = 95

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 10
31x − 42y = 51 ------(i)

42x − 31y = 95 ---------(ii)

On adding (i) and (ii), we get 73x − 73y = 146

⇒ x − y = 2 ...(iii)

On subtracting (i) from (ii), we get 11x + 11y = 44

⇒ x + y = 4 ....(iv)

On adding (iii) and (iv), we get

2x - 6 ⇒ x = 3

By putting x = 3

3 + y = 4

⇒ y = 1

∴ x = 3, y = 1

Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 11

Assertion - If the pair of lines are coincident, then we say that pair is consistent and it has a unique solution.

Reason - If the pair of lines are parallel, then the pair has no solution and is called an inconsistent pair of equations.

Detailed Solution for Test: Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables (Easy) - Question 11
If the pair of lines are coincident, then it has an infinite number of solutions. Thus, the assertion is false. If the given pair of lines are parallel, then the pair of equations is inconsistent and it has no solution. Thus, reason is correct. Hence, option (d).

Here,

a1 / a2 = 6 / 2 = 3 / 1

b1 / b2 = -3 / -1 = 3 / 1

c1 / c2 = 10 / 9
