Identify the option having two correct solutions for the equation 5x + 4y = 20

• (2,1) and (3,2)

• (1, 4) and (3,1)

• (0, 5) and (4, 0)

• (4, 3) and (3, 0)

Answer explanation

5x + 4y = 20 On taking (x = 0, y = 5), L.H.S = 5(0) + 4(5) = 20 = R.H.S On taking (x = 4, y = 0), L.H.S = 5(4) + 4(0) = 20 = R.H.S Therefore, (0, 5) and (4, 0) are two solutions of the given linear equation in two variables.

Solve for y:
2x + 2y = 6

• y = - x + 3

• y = x + 3

• y = 2x +6

• y = - 2x + 6

The linear equation 3x - 5y = 15 has

• a unique solution

• two solutions

• infinitely many solutions

• no solution

Rewrite the equation in STANDARD form.

-16x=2y-10

• 8x+y=5

• -16x-2y=10

• 16x+2y=-10

• 8x-y=-5

Rewrite the equation in STANDARD form.

-2x+20=-5y 

• 2x+5y=20

• 2x-5y=20

• 20=2x-5y 

• -2x+5y=-20

-2x+20=-5y 

• 2x+5y=20

• 2x-5y=20

• 20=2x-5y 

• -2x+5y=-20
