Write two solutions of the form x = 0, y = a and x = b , y =0 for each of the following equations: (i) 5 x -2 y =10 (ii) -4 x +3 y =12 (iii) 2 x +3 y =24

Question

Philoid · Accepted Answer

(i) 5x – 2y = 10

At x = 0,

⇒ 0 – 2y = 10

⇒ y = -5

Thus, x = 0, y = -5 is a solution

At y = 0 ,

⇒ 5x = 10

⇒ x = 2

Thus, x = 2, y = 0 is a solution

(ii) -4x+3y =12

At x = 0,

0 + 3y = 12

⇒ y = 4

Thus, x = 0 and y = 4 is a solution

At y = 0,

-4x + 0 = 12

⇒ x = -3

Thus, x = -3 and y = 0 is a solution

(iii) 2x+3y =24

At x = 0,

⇒ 0 + 3y = 24

⇒ y = 8

Thus, (0, 8) is a solution

At y = 0
