MCQ
Assertion (A) A linear equation in one variable has exactly one solution.
Reason (R) The solution of a linear equation in the value of the variable. That satisfies the equation and places both sides in balance.
  • Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  • B
    Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A .
  • C
    A is true but R is false.
  • D
    A is false but R is true.

Answer

Observe the figure as reasons for the following assertions:
Class interval Age (in year)Number of persons
15-2012
20-2520
25-3042
30-3520
35-406
Assertion (A): the size of the class intervals is -5.
Assertion (A): am x an is equal to a(m + n).
Reasons (R): product of powers property.
Assertion (A): 0 is not a rational number
Reason (R): a rational number is a type of real numbers, which is in the form of $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}$ where q is not equal to zero.
Assertion (A):  The root of the equation $\frac{7\text{x}}{3} = {3}$ is $\frac{5\text{x}}{3}$
Reason (R): The value of the variable which makes left hand side equal to right hand side in the given equation is called the solution or the root of the equation.
Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion (A): The measures of each of the four angles of a quadrilateral are equal.
Reason (R): In geometry a quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon, having four edges (sides) and four corners (vertices)
Assertion (A): The number of sides of a quadrilateral is 4
Reason (R): In geometry a quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon, having four edges (sides) and four corners (vertices).
Assertion (A): Whole numbers are commutative for addition
Reason (R): Rational numbers are commutative under addition and multiplication
Assertion (A): The sum of the internal angles of a polygon is 10 right angles. Then the number of sides is 7
Reason (R): Quadrilaterals are composed of two triangles. Seeing as we know the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°, it follows that the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion (A): On subtracting 30 from two times a number, we get 56. This statement in the form of an equation is $2x - 30 = 56$
Reason (R): the linear equation involves only one unknown, it is called “univariate”. The quadratic equation contains only powers of $x$ that are non-negative
Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion (A): The difference of two numbers is $21.$ The larger number is $x.$ The smaller number is $x - 21.$
Reason (R): Numbers which follow each other in order, without gaps, from smallest to largest. $12, 13, 14$ and $15$ are consecutive numbers
