  2. OBJECTIVES • To enable the learner to form linear equations in two variables from the verbal questions and to solve the problem using various methods. • To develop the numerical,problem solving and comprehensive abilities. • To develop positive and critical thinking.

  3. AN OVERVIEW In earlier classes we have studied about the linear equations in one and twovariables,solving linear equations in one variable and to draw the graph of linear equations in one and two variables. In the following modules we will learn how to solve a pair of linear equations in two variables using different methods and apply the knowledge to solve practical and day to day problems

  4. MODULE 1SOLVING EQUATIONS GRAPHICALLY Steps to solve a problem graphically: • Take equation 1,give any value to one of the variables and find the value of the other variable and prepare a table of values. • Similarly take equation 2 and prepare a table of values. • Draw the graph of both the equations taking suitable scale. • Determine the coordinates of the point if they intersect,that gives the solution of the given equations • If the graph go parallel,there are no solutions. • If both the graph represent the same line,then there are infinite solutions.

  5. INTRODUCTION Naveen went to a fair in his town. He wanted to buy books and toys. The number of toys purchased is half the number of books. If a book costs Rs.3 and a toy costs Rs.4 and he had spent Rs20,then how can we find the number of books and toys bought? This problem can be solved graphically and algebraically .First let us solve graphically. To solve this let us apply the knowledge of equations learnt in class- 9.Now the situation can be represented by two equations. Let the number of books bought be = x And the number of toys bought be = y Now we have the equations y = 1/2x………….. (1) 3x + 4y = 20……………. (2)

  6. Let us the take the example given above. Naveen goes to a fair with Rs.20 and wants to buy books and toys. Represent this situation graphically. Solution: The pair of equations formed is : y = 1/2x x – 2y = 0 3x + 4y = 20 Let us represent these equations graphically. For this, we need at least two solutionsfor each equation. We give these solutions in table X 0 2 X 0 20/3 4 Y 5 0 2 Y = x/2 0 1 (i) (ii)

  7. Plot the points A(0,0),B(2,1) and P(0,5),Q(4,2),corresponding to the solutions in table.Now draw the lines AB and PQ representing the equations x – 2y = 0 and 3x + 4y = 20, as shown. In figure observe that the two lines representing the two equations are intersecting at the point(4,2) . We shall discuss what this means in the next section.

  9. Example ;1 Priya went to a stationery shop and purchased 2 pencils and 3 erasers for Rs 9. Her friend Preethi saw the new variety of pencils and erasers with Priya and she also bought 4 pencils and 6 erasers of the same kind for Rs 18. Represent this situation algebraically and graphically. Solution Let us denote the cost of 1 pencil by Rs x and 1 eraser by Rs y.Then the algebraic representation is given by the following equation 2x + 3y = 9 ……………….. [1] 4x + 6y = 18 ……………… [2] To obtain the equivalent geometric representation , we find 2 points on the line represening each equation . ie , we find 2 solutions of each equation.

  10. Graphicalrepresentation These solutions are given below, 2x + 3y = 9 4x + 6y = 18 X 0 3 X 0 4.5 Y 3 1 Y 3 0 [ii] [i] We plot these points in a graph paper and draw the lines.We find that both the lines coincide . This is so, because ,both the equations are equivalent ,i.e.,one can be derived from the other .

  11. 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - o Y - 4x + 6y = 18 2x + 3y = 9 (0,3) 1i . (3,1) (4.5,0) X’ i i i i i X oo11 2 3 4 5 6 Y’

  12. Example ;2 Two rails are represented by the equations x + 2y – 4 = 0 and 2x+ 4y - 12 = 0. Represent this situation graphically. X+2y – 4 = 0 [1] 2x+4y –12=0 [2] Two solutions for each equations are given below X 0 4 X 0 6 Y 2 0 Y 3 0

  13. To represent the equations graphically , we plot the points R(0,2) and S(4,0), to get the line RS and the points P(0,3) and Q(6,0) to get the line PQ. We observe in fig. ,that lines do not intersect any where , i.e ., they are parallel. So ,we have seen several situations which can be represented by a pair of linear equations . We have seen their algebraic and geometric representations .In the next few sections, we will discuss how these representations can be used to look for solutions of the linear equations .

  16. CONDITIIONS FOR CONSISTENCY AND INCONSISTENCY • If a1 /a2 ≠ b1 /b2 • The system has a unique solution and is said to be consistent and independent. • If a1 /a2 = b1 /b2 =c1/c2 • The system has infinitely many solutions and is said to be consistent and dependent.

  17. CONDITIONS (CONT) • If a1 /a2 =b1 / b2 ≠ c1/ c2 • The system has no solution and is said to be • Inconsistent.

  18. MODULE : 1 Graphical method: ( summary ) The graph of a pair of linear equations in two variables is represented by two lines i) If the lines intersect at a point ,then the that point gives the unique solutions of the two equations .In this case the pair of equations is consistent. ii) If the line coincides, then there are infinitely many solutions. Each point on the line being a solution, in this case the pair of equations is dependent. iii) If the lines are parallel,then the pair of equations has no solutions. In this case the pair of equations is inconsistent.

  19. ASSIGNMENT :MODULE 1 Solve the following pair of linear equations graphically. • 1) 2x – 3y – 17 = 0, 4x + y – 13 = 0 • 2) 3x + 2y = 0 , 2x + y = -1 Answers • 1) x = 4, y = -3 • 2) x = -2, y = 3

Answer- the vertices of the triangle are: (0,8) , (-4,0) , (3,0)

  21. Module : 2 Solving a pair of linear equations by algebraic methodElimination by substitution In the previous section , we learnt how to solve a pair of linear equations graphically. It is true that anything visual has a certain appeal. This method will not be suitable if the solutions are in decimal or rationals. Therefore we need other methods to solve the equations. Hence the algebraic methods were introduced. Step 1: Take any of the given linear equations and find the value of one of the variables in terms of other variable.ie if the variables are x and y.Find the value of y in terms of x. Step 2: Substitute the value of y ,obtained in step 1,in the other equation which will give an equation only in x. Stap 3: Solve the equation obtained in step 2. To get the value of x. Step 4: Substitute the value of x as obtained in step 3 in the expression for y in terms of x & solve the equation to get the value of y.

  22. Example -1: Solve x + y = 7 & 3x – 2y = 11 using the method of substitution. Solution : Name the given equations as 1 & 2 X + y = 7 …………(1) 3x – 2y = 11 …………(2) From (1) we get y = 7 – x Substituting the value of y in the eqn (2) We get 3x – 2(7 – x) = 11 3x – 14 + 2x = 11 5x – 14 = 11 5x = 25, x = 5 Now y = 7 – 5 = 2 , solution is x = 5, y = 2

  23. Alternatively x + y = 7…(1) , 3x – 2y = 11…(2) , From equation (1) , find the value of x x = 7 – x ……………………… (3) substitute the value of x in eqn 3x – 2y = 11 ……………………… (2) 3(7 – y) – 2y = 11 21 – 3y – 2y = 11 21 –5y =11 -5y = 11-21 -5y = -10 y = 2 Put y= 2 in eqn (3),x=7 – 2 = 5 . Solution x = 5 ,y = 2 . Verification:put x = 5, y = 2 in any of the eqn (1) or (2) x + y = 7, 5 + 2 = 7.LHS = RHS . Thus the solution is correct.

  25. MODULE : 3Elimination by equating coefficients Step 1:Multiply both the given eqns by suitable non zero no.(constants) so thatcoefficients of x (or coefficients of y ) in both the eqns become equal. Step 2 :Add or subtract as required ,one eqn from the other ,so that the variable with equal coefficients gets eliminated. Step 3 : Solve the eqn obtained in step 2,to find the value of the variable which is left in step 2. Step 4 : Substitute the value of the variable obtained in step 3,in any one the given eqn and get the value of the other variable .

  26. MODULE-3 :EXAMPLE 1 Solve : 2x + 3y = 9 …… (1) 3x +4y = 5………(2) ,by using the method of elimination by equating the coefficients Solution Step 1 : In oder to make the coefficients of variable x equal multiply eqn (1) by 3 and multiply the eqn (2) by 2. Thus (2x + 3y) 3 = 9 x 3. 6x + 9y = 27 …………………………(3) (3x + 4y ) 2 = 5 x 2 6x + 8y = 10 ……………………..(4) On subtracting 4 from 3 ,we get y = 17 Subtituting the value of y in (1) we get 2x + 3y = 9 2x + 3 (17 ) = 9 2x = 9 – 51 = -42 x = - 21

  27. ALTERNATE METHOD We name the eqns 2x + 3y = 9 ……..(1) 3x + 4y = 5 ……(2) Multiply first eqn by 4 and by 3 . We get 8x + 12y = 36 ………….(3) 9x +12y = 15 ………….(4) On subtracting eqn 4 from 3, -x = 21 x = -21 Subtituing x = -21 in eqn (1) we get 2(-21) + 3y = 9 -42 + 3y = 9 y = 17 Verification : put x = -21 and y = 17 in eqn (2) 3(-21) + 4(17) = 5 ,we get 5 = 5, LHS = RHS . Thus the solution is correct.

  28. MODULE – 4 By cross multiplication Solution for the general form of pair of linear equation. Step 1 ; leta1x + b1y +c1 = 0 ……………………………… (1) a2x + b2y +c2 = 0 ………………………………(2) Be the 2 equations Step 2 ; 1) Write the coefficients of x , y & constant term as a1 b1 c1 a2 b2c2 2) Rewrite the first two columns after third column. As shown below. a1 b1 c1 a1 b1 a2 b2 c2 a2 b2 3) Now write x between 2nd and 3rd columns , y between 3rd and 4th & 1 between 4th and 5th.Also mark arrows 1 from left top to right bottom and other from left bottom to right top . x y +1 a1 b1 c1 a1 b1 a2 b2 c2 a2 b2

  29. Step 3 obtain three equal fractions with numerator x ,y,1 For their denominators multiply the numbers with down arrows and from their products subtract the product of the nos.with upward arrows. Thus we get x = y = 1 b1-c2-b2c1 c1 a2 –c2 a1a1 b2 –a1 b1 Step 4: Obtain the value of x by equating the first and third expressions. Obtain the value of y by equating the second and third expressions. Thus x = b1-c2-b2c1 y = c1 a2 –c2 a1 a1 b2 –a1 b1 a1 b2 –a1 b1 Note if the constant are on RHS of the eqns, then put –1 instead of +1in step 2.

  30. MODULE -4 : EXAMPLE -1 Solve the follwing pair of equations using cross multiplication method . 2x +3y – 6 = 0 & 6x – 5y – 4 = 0 Solution : x y +1 2 3 - 62+3 6 -5 -4 6 -5 x = y = 1 3(-4 ) –(-5 )(-6 ) -6 (6) – (-4 ) 2 2(-5 ) – 6 x 3 x = y = 1 -42 -28 -28 x = 3/2 y = 1
