$x = 2, y = -1$ is a solution of the linear equation:
- ✓
$x + 2y = 0$
- B
$x + 2y = 4$
- C
$2x + y = 0$
- D
$2x + y = 5$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $x + 2y = 0$
Substituting $x = 2$ and $y = -1$ in the following equations:
$L.H.S. = x + 2y = 2 + 2(-1) = 2 - 2 = 0 = R.H.S.$
$L.H.S. = x + 2y = 2 + 2(-1) = 2 - 2 = 0 ≠ 4 ≠ R.H.S.$
$L.H.S. = 2x + y = 2(2) + (-1) = 4 - 1 = 3 ≠ 0 ≠ R.H.S.$
$L.H.S. = 2x + y = 2(2) + (-1) = 4 - 1 = 3 ≠ 5 ≠ R.H.S.$
Hence, correct option is $(a).$

The graph of the linear equation $2x + 5y = 10$ meets the $x-$axis at the point.
- A
$(0, 5)$
- ✓
$(5, 0)$
- C
$(0, 2)$
- D
$(2, 0)$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $(5, 0)$
If the graph of the linear equation $2x + 5y = 10$ meets the $x-$axis, then $y = 0.$
Substituting the value of $y = 0$ in equation $2x + 5y = 10$, we get
$2x + 5(0) = 10$
$\Rightarrow 2x = 10$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{10}{2}$
$\Rightarrow x = 5$
So, the point of meeting is $(5, 0).$

$(-1,1)$
- ✓
$\Big(\frac{1}{1},\frac{1}{2}\Big)$
- C
$\Big(\frac{1}{1},-\frac{1}{2}\Big)$
- D

AnswerCorrect option: B. $\Big(\frac{1}{1},\frac{1}{2}\Big)$
The graph of the linear equation $x - y = 0$ passes through the point $\Big(\frac{1}{1},\frac{1}{2}\Big)$ because the co-ordinate of x and y axis satisfy the given equation $x - y = 0.$
$\frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{2}=0$
$0 = 0$
So we can say $\Big(\frac{1}{1},\frac{1}{2}\Big)$ is a solution of above equation.
So we can say the value of x co-ordinate must be equal to y co-ordinate.

If a linear equation has solutions $(1, 2), (-1, -16)$ and $(0, -7)$, then it is of the form:
- ✓
$y = 9x - 7$
- B
$9x - y + 7 = 0$
- C
$x - 9y = 7$
- D
$x = 9y - 7$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $y = 9x - 7$
Since all the given co- ordinate $(1, 2), (-1, -16)$ and $(0, -7)$ satisfy the given line $y = 9x - 7$
For point $(1, 2)$
$y = 9x - 7$
$2 = 9(1) - 7$
$2 = 9 - 7$
$2 = 2$
Hence $(2, 1)$ is a solution.
For point $(-1, -16)$
$y = 9x - 7$
$-16 = 9(-1) - 7$
$-16 = -9 - 7$
$-16 = -16$
Hence $(-1, -16)$ is a solution.
For point $(0, -7)$
$y = 9x - 7$
$-7 = 9(0) -7$
$-7 = -7$
Hence $(0, -7)$ is a solution.
