School, Sector V, Gurgaon. Once the teacher Peter to think a number x and to
Kevin to think another number y so that the difference of the numbers is 10
( x  y ) . Now the teacher asked James to form one equation.
Reeta just entered the class. The teacher asked her to add double of Peter’s
number and three times of Kevin’s number, the total was found 120.The teacher
said Reeta to form the 2nd equation with two variables x and y. Now teacher told
Veena to find the values of x and y. Peter and Kevin were told to verify the
numbers x and y. Based on the above information, answer the following questions.
i. What is the equation formed by James? 1
ii. What is the equation formed by Reeta? 1
iii. Find four solutions of the 1st equation. 2
