Question 11 Mark
If (2k - 1, k) is a solution of the equation 10x - 9y = 12, then k =
  1. 1
  2. 2
  3. 3
  4. 4
Answer
  1. 2
Solution:
If (2k - 1, k) is solution of equation 10x - 9y = 12, then it must satisfy this equation.
Thus, we have
10(2k - 1) - 9k = 12
20k - 10 - 9k = 12
11k = 22
k = 2
Hence, correct option is (b).

Question 31 Mark
lf the graph of the equation 4x + 3y = 12 cuts the coordinate axes at A and B, then hypotenuse of right triangle AOB is of length:
  1. 4 units.
  2. 3 units.
  3. 5 units.
  4. None of these.
Answer
  1. 5 units.
Solution:

4x + 3y = 12
At x = 0, 3y = 12 ⇒ y = 4 units
At y = 0, 4x = 12 ⇒ x = 3 units
The triangle formed is $\triangle\text{AOB},$ where
OB = 4 units
OA = 3 units
Hypotenuse $=\text{AB}=\sqrt{\text{OB}^2+\text{OA}^2}=\sqrt{16+9}=5\text{ units}$
Hence, correct option is (c).

Question 41 Mark
x = 2, y = -1 is a solution of the linear equation:
  1. x + 2y = 0
  2. x + 2y = 4
  3. 2x + y = 0
  4. 2x + y = 5
Answer
  1. x + 2y = 0
Solution:
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).

Question 51 Mark
If (a, 4) lies on the graph of 3x + y = 10, then the value of a is:
  1. 3
  2. 1
  3. 2
  4. 4
Answer
  1. 2
Solution:
3x + y = 10
If (a, 4) lies on its graph, then it must satisfy the equation.
Thus, we have
3(a) + 4 = 10
i.e. 3a = 6
i.e. a = 2
Hence, correct option is (c).

Question 61 Mark
If (4, 19) is a solution of the equation y = ax + 3, then a =
  1. 3
  2. 4
  3. 5
  4. 6
Answer
  1. 4
Solution:
y = ax + 3
If (4, 19) is its solution, then it must satisfy the equation.
Thus, we have
19 = a × 4 + 3
i.e. 4a = 16
i.e. a = 4
Hence, correct option is (b).

Question 71 Mark
The graph of the linear equation 2x - y = 4 cuts x-axis at:
  1. (2, 0)
  2. (-2, 0)
  3. (0, -4)
  4. (0, 4)
Answer
  1. (2, 0)
Solution:
On x-axis, the y-co-ordinate is always 0.
So, 2x - y = 4 will cut the x-axis where y = 0
i.e. 2x = 4
i.e. x = 2
Thus, 2x - y = 4 will cut the x-axis at (2, 0).
Hence, correct option is (a).

Solution:
The distance between given two graphs
= 3 - (-1)
= 3 + 1
= 4
Hence, correct option is (b).

Question 101 Mark
How many linear equations are satisfied by x = 2 and y = -3?
  1. Only one.
  2. Two.
