Chapter - 4: (Linear Equations in Two Variables)

This document discusses linear equations in two variables. Some key points covered include: - A linear equation in two variables has the form ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are real numbers and a and b are not both zero. - A pair of values (x,y) that satisfy the equation are called a solution. - A linear equation in two variables has infinitely many solutions. - The graph of a linear equation in two variables is a straight line. - Several examples of linear equations and their graphs are given, along with sample problems to test understanding.

(Linear Equations in two variables)


Key Concept
 An equation of the form where a, b and c are real numbers such

that a and b are not both zero is called a linear equation in two variables.

 A pair of values of x and y which satisfy the equation is called a

solution of the equation.

 A linear equation in two variables has infinitely many solutions.

 The graph of every linear equation in two variables is a straight line.

 y = 0 is the equation of x-axis and x = 0 is equation of y-axis.

 The graph of is a straight line parallel to the y-axis.

 The graph of y = a is a straight line parallel to the x-axis.

 An equation of the type y = mx represent a line passing through the origin.
