Linear Equations (CBSE - Class X) MM - 25

1. Solve for x and y [3 mks]

1 12 1
+ =
2(2𝑥𝑥 + 3𝑦𝑦) 7(3𝑥𝑥 − 2𝑦𝑦) 2

7 4
+ =2
2𝑥𝑥 + 3𝑦𝑦 3𝑥𝑥 − 2𝑦𝑦

2. Solve for p and q [3 mks]

𝑝𝑝 + 𝑞𝑞
=2
𝑝𝑝𝑝𝑝
𝑝𝑝 − 𝑞𝑞
=6
𝑝𝑝𝑝𝑝

3. Solve for x and y ; [3 mks]

2 3
+ =2
√𝑥𝑥 √𝑦𝑦

4 9
− =2
√𝑥𝑥 √𝑦𝑦

4. Solve for x and y : [4 mks]

ax + by = 1 ;

bx+ay = (a+b)2 / [(a2 +b2) – 1]

5. For what value of K the following system of equation are parallel. [3 mks]
2x + Ky = 10
3x + (k + 3) y = 12

6. For what value of p the pair of linear equations has unique solution. [3 mks]
(p + 2) x – (2 p + 1)y = 3(2p – 1) ,
2x – 3y = 7

7. Find the value of K so that the pair of linear equations is inconsistent [3 mks]
(3 k + 1) x + 3y – 2 = 0
(k2 + 1) x + (k–2)y – 5 = 0

8. Check graphically whether the pair of linear equations 3x + 5y = 15, x – y = 5 is

consistent. [3 mks]
