Chapter -Pair of Linear Equations in two variables Grade : 10

1. How many solutions does the pair of equations y=0 and y = -5


(a) a unique solution (b) infinitely many solutions (c) no solution (d) two solutions
2. The pair of equations 3x – 5y = 7 and – 6x + 10y = 7 have
(a) a unique solution (b) infinitely many solutions (c) no solution (d) two solutions
3. If the lines given by 2x + k y = 1 and 3x – 5y = 7 are parallel, then the value of k is (a)
−7 (b)10 (c) −10 (d)
4. One equation of a pair of dependent linear equations is 2x + 5y = 3. The second equation
will be
(a) 2x + 5y = 6 (b) 3x + 5y = 3 (c) -10x – 25y + 15 = 0 (d) 10x + 25y = 15
5. If x = a, y = b is the solution of the equations x + y = 5 and 2x – 3y = 4, then the values of
a and b are respectively
(a) (6, -1) (b)( 2, 3 ) (c) (1, 4 ) (d) (19/5, 6/5)
6. Assertion: The graphical representation of a pair of equations 4x + 3y – 1 = 5 and 12x +
9y = 15 will be parallel lines.
Reason: If the given pair of equations has no solution. That means the lines representing
the given pair of equations are parallel to each other.
a) both assertion and reason are correct and the reason is the correct explanation for the
assertion
b) both assertion and reason are correct but the reason is the correct explanation for the
assertion
c) assertion is correct but the reason is false
d) both assertion and reason are false 7. Assertion: The linear equations x−2y−3=0 and
3x+4y−20=0 have exactly one solution. Reason: The linear equations 2x+3y−9=0 and
4x+6y−18=0 have a unique solution.
a) both assertion and reason are correct and the reason is a correct explanation for the
assertion
b) both assertion and reason are correct but the reason is a correct explanation for the
assertion
c) assertion is correct but the reason is false
d) both assertion and reason are false
8. Age of a father is 7 years more than 3 times the present age of his son. The above
statement can be expressed in a linear equation as --------------
9 For what value of 𝑘, the following pair of linear equations has infinitely many
solutions?
10𝑥 + 5𝑦 − (𝑘 − 5) = 0 , 20𝑥 +10𝑦 − 𝑘 = 0
10 For what value of 𝑘 will the following pair of linear equations have no solution? 2𝑥
+ 3𝑦 = 9; 6𝑥 +(𝑘 − 2)𝑦 =
(3𝑘 − 2). 11
12 On reversing the digits of a two-digit number, the number obtained is 9 less than three
times the original number. If the difference between these two numbers is 45, find the
original number.
