Given: 2x + y – 5 = 0 and 3x + 2y – 8 = 0

We know that the general form for a pair of linear equations in 2 variables x and y is a₁x + b₁y + c₁ = 0

and a₂x + b₂y + c₂ = 0.

Comparing with above equations,

we have a₁ = 2, b₁ = 1, c₁ = - 5; a₂ = 3, b₂ = 2, c₂ = - 8

Since

The lines are intersecting.

∴The pair of equations has a unique solution.
