I. 3x + y + 1 = 0
2x – 3y + 8 =0
Q2. Solve each of the following system of equation graphically, and find the vertices , area , of the
triangle formed by these lines and x- axis.
2x – 3y + 4 = 0 , X +2y – 5 =0
Q3. Solve each of the following system of equation graphically, and find the vertices, area, of the
triangle formed by these lines and Y- axis.
4x – y -4 = 0 , 3x +2y -14 = 0
(a + b) (x + y) = +
- = a + b , ax –by = 2ab
−a + b = 0 , bx –ay –a –b = 0
−378y = -74 , -378x +152y = -604
- =0, = (a2 )
Q6. Find the value of k for which the given system of equation has infinitely many solutions.
Q7. Find the value of k for which the given system of equation has no solution.
X +2y = 5 , 3x + ky =15
(v) A fraction becomes , if 2 is added to both the numerator and the denominator. If, 3 is
added to both the numerator and denominator it becomes . Find the fraction.
(vi) Five years hence, the age of Jacob will be three times that of his son. Five years ago, Jacob's
age was seven times that of his son. What are their present ages?
Q2. Form the pair of linear equations in the following problems, and find their solutions (if they
exist) by the elimination method:
(i) If we add 1 to the numerator and subtract 1 from the denominator, a fraction reduces to 1. It
becomes ½ if we only add 1 to the denominator. What is the fraction?
(ii) Five years ago, Nuri was thrice as old as sonu. Ten years later, Nuri will be twice as old as
sonu. How old are Nuri and Sonu?
(iii) The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 9. Also, nine times this number is twice the
number obtained by reversing the order of the digits. Find the number.
(iv) Meena went to a bank to withdraw Rs 2000. She asked the cashier to give her Rs 50 and Rs
100 notes only. Meena got 25 notes in all. Find how many notes of Rs 50 and Rs 100 she
received.
(v) A lending library has a fixed charge for the first three days and an additional charge for each
day thereafter. Saritha paid Rs 27 for a book kept for seven days, while Susy paid Rs 21 for the
book she kept for five days. Find the fixed charge and the charge for each extra day.
Q3. Form the pair of linear equations in the following problems and find their solutions .
(i) A part of monthly hostel charges is fixed and the remaining depends on the number of days
one has taken food in the mess. When a student A takes food for 20 days she has to pay Rs
1000 as hostel charges whereas a student B, who takes food for 26 days, pays Rs 1180 as hostel
charges. Find the fixed charges and the cost of food per day.
(ii) A fraction becomes when 1 is subtracted from the numerator and it becomes when 8 is
added to its denominator. Find the fraction.
(iii) Yash scored 40 marks in a test, getting 3 marks for each right answer and losing 1 mark for
each wrong answer. Had 4 marks been awarded for each correct answer and 2 marks been
deducted for each incorrect answer, then Yash would have scored 50 marks. How many
questions were there in the test?
(iv) Places A and B are 100 km apart on a highway. One car starts from A and another from B at
the same time. If the cars travel in the same direction at different speeds, they meet in 5 hours.
If they travel towards each other, they meet in 1 hour. What are the speeds of the two cars?
(v) The area of a rectangle gets reduced by 9 square units, if its length is reduced by 5 units and
breadth is increased by 3 units. If we increase the length by 3 units and the breadth by 2 units,
the area increases by 67 square units. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
Q4. Formulate the following problems as a part of equations, and hence find their solutions.
(i) 2 women and 5 men can together finish an embroidery work in 4 days, while 3 women and 6
men can finish it in 3 days. Find the time taken by 1 woman alone to finish the work, and also
that taken by 1 man alone.
(ii) Roohi travels 300 km to her home partly by train and partly by bus. She takes 4 hours if she
travels 60 km by train and the remaining by bus. If she travels 100 km by train and the
remaining by bus, she takes 10 minutes longer. Find the speed of the train and the bus
separately.
(iii). Abdul travelled 300 km by train and 200 km by taxi, it took him 5 hours 30 minutes. But if
he travels 260 km by train and 240 km by taxi he takes 6 minute longer. Find the speed of the
train and that of the taxi
