The area of the triangle formed by the line $3x + 4y = 12$ and the co-ordinate axis is:
  • $6$ sq. units.
  • B
    $12$ sq. units.
  • C
    $4$ sq. units.
  • D
    $3$ sq. units.
Answer
Correct option: A.
$6$ sq. units.

To find the area of the triangle $A O B$ formed by the line $3 x+4 y=12$ and co-ordinate axis we put $x=0$ in given equation to find the point on $y$ axies.
So, at $x=0$
$3(0) + 4y = 12$
$4y = 12$
We get $y = 3$
$At y = 0$
$3x + 4(0) = 12$
$3x = 12$
We get $x=4$
So the line cut $y$ axis at 3 and $x$ axis at $4$
So the hight of triangle $A O B$ is $O B=3$ unit and base $O A=4$ unit
Area ot triangle $A O B=12$ (base $\times$ height)
$= 12 \times 4 \times 3$
$= 6$ unit square.

So to find the co-ordinate of $x$ we put $y = 0$ in given equation,
$x - 5y + 3 = 0$
at $y = 0$
$x - 5.0 + 3 = 0$
$x + 3 = 0$

MCQ 1191 Mark
The taxi fare in a city is as follows: For the first kilometer, the fare is $₹ 8$ and for the subsequent distance it is $₹ 5$ per kilometer. Taking the distance covered as $x \ km$ and total fare as $₹ y$, write a linear equation for this information.
  • A
    $x = 5y - 3$
  • $y = 5x + 3$
  • C
    $x = 5y + 3$
  • D
    $y = 5x - 3$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$y = 5x + 3$
Taxi fare for first kilometer $= ₹ 8$
Taxi fare for subsequent distance $= ₹ 5$
Total distance covered $= x$
Total fare $= y$
Since the fare for first kilometer $= ₹ 8$
According to problem, Fare for $(x - 1)$ kilometer $= 5(x - 1)$
So, the total fare $y = 5(x - 1) + 8$
$\Rightarrow y = 5(x - 1) + 8$
$\Rightarrow y = 5x - 5 + 8$
$\Rightarrow y = 5x + 3$
Hence, $y = 5x + 3$ is the required linear equation.

Correct option: B.
Pass through the origin.
The graph of $y = 4x$ will pass through the origin $(0, 0)$
$y = 4x$
At $x = 0$
$y = 4.0$
$y = 0$
So the graph $y = 4x$ will pass from point $(0, 0).$

Write the linear equation such that each point on its graph has an ordinates times its abscissa.
  • $y = 5x$
  • B
    $x = 5y$
  • C
    $5x + y = 2$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
Correct option: A.
$y = 5x$
At $x = 1$
$y = 5.1 = 5$
$y = 5$
$(1, 5)$
At $x = 2$
$y = 5.2 = 10$
$y = 10$
$(2, 10)$
At $x = 3$
$y = 5.3 = 15$
$y = 15$
$(3, 15)$

Write the correct answer in the following: The equation $x = 7$, in two variables can be written as,
  • A
    $1 - x + 1.y = 7$
  • B
    $1 - x + 0.y = 7$
  • C
    $0 - x + 1.y = 7$
  • $0 - x + 0.y = 7$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$0 - x + 0.y = 7$
The equation $x = 7$ in two variables can be expressed as $1.x + 0.y = 7.$

Point $(3, 4)$ lies on the graph of the equation $3y = kx + 7$. The value of $k$ is:
  • A
    $\frac{4}{3}$
  • $\frac{5}{3}$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $\frac{7}{3}$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{5}{3}$
$3y = kx + 7$
Here, $x = 3$ and $y = 4$
Hence,
$(3 × 4) = (kx3) + 7$
$12 = 3k + 7$
$3k = 12 - 7$
$3k = 5$
$\text{k}=\frac{5}{3}$
