Question 22 Marks
Find the value of $\lambda$ if $\text{x}=-\lambda$ and $\text{y} = \frac{5}{2}$ is a solution of the equation x + 4y - 7 = 0
Answer
We are given, x + 4y - 7 = 0 $(-\lambda, -5)$ is a solution of equation 3x + 4y = k Substituting $\text{x}=-\lambda$ and $\text{y} = \frac{5}{2}$ in x + 4y - 7 = 0, We get; $-\lambda+ 4 \times\Big(\frac{5}{2}\Big) - 7 $$= 0 -\lambda + 4 \times\frac{5}{2} - 7 = 0$
$\lambda = 10 - 7$
$\lambda = 3$

Question 32 Marks
The sum of a two digit number and the number obtained by reversing the order of its digits is 121. lf units and ten's digit of the number are x ard y respectively, then write the linear equation representing the above statement.
Answer
Total original number is 10y + x.
The new number is obtained after reversing the order of digits is 10x + y.
According to question,
(10y + x) + (10x + y) = 121
⇒ 10y + x 10x + y = 121
⇒ 11x + 11y = 121
⇒ x + y = 11
This is the required linear equation for the given information.

Question 42 Marks
A number is 27 more than the number obtained by reversing its digits. If its unit's and ten's digit are x and y respectively, write the linear equation representing the above statement.
Answer
Total original number is 10y + x.
The new number is obtained after reversing the order of digits is 10x + y.
According to question,
10y + x = 10x + y + 27
⇒ 9y - 9x = 27
⇒ y - x = 3
⇒ x - y + 3 = 0
This is the required linear equation for the given information.

Question 52 Marks
Check the following are solutions of the equation 2x - y = 6 and which are not:
(2, -2)
Answer
We are given, 2x - y = 6In the equation 2x - y = 6,
We have L.H.S = 2x - y and R.H.S = 6 Substituting x = 2 and y = -2 in 2x - y, We get L.H.S = 2 × 2 - (-2) = 6 ⇒ L.H.S = R.H.S ⇒ (2, -2) is a solution of 2x - y = 6.

Question 62 Marks
Check the following are solutions of the equation 2x - y = 6 and which are not:
(0, 6)
Answer
We are given, 2x - y = 6
In the equation 2x - y = 6,
We have L.H.S= 2x - y and R.H.S = 6
Substituting x = 0 and y = 6 in 2x - y
We get L.H.S = 2 × 0 - 6 = - 6
⇒ L.H.S ≠ R.H.S
⇒ (0, 6) is not a solution of 2x - y = 6.

Question 82 Marks
Check the following are solutions of the equation 2x - y = 6 and which are not:
(3, 0)
Answer
We are given, 2x - y = 6
In the equation 2x - y = 6,
We have L.H.S = 2x - y and R.H.S = 6
Substituting x = 3 and y = 0 in 2x - y,
We get L.H.S = 2 × 3 - 0 = 6
⇒ L.H.S = R.H.S
⇒ (3, 0) is a solution of 2x - y = 6.

Question 92 Marks
Check the following are solutions of the equation 2x - y = 6 and which are not:$\Big(\frac{1}{2},\ -5\Big)$
Answer
We are given, 2x - y = 6
In the equation 2x - y = 6,
We have L.H.S = 2x - y and R.H.S = 6
Substituting $\text{x} = \frac{1}{2}$ and y = in 2x - y, we get L.H.S $=2\times\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big) - (-5)$
⇒ 1 + 5 = 6
⇒ L.H.S = R.H.S
⇒ (12, -5) is a solution of 2x - y = 6.

Question 182 Marks
Check the following are solutions of the equation 2x - y = 6 and which are not:$(\sqrt{3}, 0)$
Answer
We are given, 2x - y = 6
In the equation 2x - y = 6,
We have L.H.S = 2x - y and R.H.S = 6
