In the following, find the co$-$ordinates of the point whose abscissa is the solution of the first equation and ordinate is the solution of the second equation:$5 x-(5-x)=\frac{1}{2}(3-x) ; 4-3 y=\frac{4+y}{3}$
Answer$5 x-(5-x)=\frac{1}{2}(3-x) ; 4-3 y=\frac{4+y}{3}$
Now
$5 x-(5-x)=\frac{1}{2}(3-x)$
$(5 x+x)-5=\frac{1}{2}(3-x)$
$12 x - 10 = 3 - x$
$12x + x = 3 +10$
$13x = 13$
$x = 1$
Again
$4-3 y=\frac{4+y}{3}$
$12-9 y=4+y$
$12-4=y+9 y$
$8=10 y$
$\frac{8}{10}=y$
$\frac{4}{5}=y$
$\therefore$ The co$-$ordinates of the point $\left(1, \frac{4}{5}\right)$

Find the values of $x$ and $y$ if:$(5x - 3y, y - 3x) = (4, -4)$
AnswerTwo ordered pairs are equal.
$\Rightarrow $ Therefore their first components are equal and their second components too are separately equal.
$(5x - 3y, y - 3x) = (4, -4)$
$5x - 3y = 4 .......(A)$ and
$ y - 3x = -4 ......(B)$
Now multiplying the equation $(B)$ by $3$, we get
$3y - 9x = -12......(C)$
Now adding both the equations $(A)$ and $(C),$ we get
$(5x - 3y) + (3y - 9x) = (4 + (-12))$
$-4x = -8$
$x = 2$
Putting the value of $x$ in the equation$(B)$, we get
$y - 3x = -4$
$\Rightarrow y = 3x -4$
$\Rightarrow y = 3(2) -4$
$\Rightarrow y = 2$
Therefore we get,
$x = 2, y = 2$

Draw the graph of the line $x + y = 5$. Use the graph paper drawn to find the inclination and the $y-$intercept of the line.
AnswerGiven line is
$x + y = 5$
The graph of the given line is shown below.

From the given line $x + y = 5,$ we get
$x + y = 5$
$y = - x + 5$
$y = (-1) . x + 5 \dots.......(A)$
Again we know that equation of any straight line in the form $y = mx + c,$
where $m$ is the gradient and $c$ is the intercept.
Again we have if slope of a line is $\tan \theta$ then inclination of the line is $\theta $
Now from the equation $(A),$ we have
$m = - 1$
$\tan \theta = - 1$
$\tan \theta = \tan 135^\circ $
$\theta = 135^\circ $
And $c = 5$
Therefore the required inclination is $\theta = 135^\circ $ and $y-$intercept is $c = 5$ View full question & answer→Question 204 Marks
