Exercise 10.3.1

1. Form the pair of linear equations in the following problems, and find their solutions graphically.

(i) 10 students of Class X took part in a Mathematics quiz. If the number of girls is 4 more than the number of boys, find the number of boys and girls who took part in the quiz.

The total number of students is 10 : x+y=10.
The number of girls is 4 more than the number of boys : y=x+4.
Equation 1.x+y=10 x=0,y=10.point(0,10),x=10,y=0.point(,).
Equation 2.y=x+4 x=0,y=4.point(0,4),x=6,y=10.point(,)

(ii) 5 pencils and 7 pens together cost 50, whereas 7 pencils and 5 pens together cost 46. Find the cost of one pencil and that of one pen

5 pencils and 7 pens cost \Rs50 : 5x+7y=50, (Equation 1)
7 pencils and 5 pens cost \Rs46 : 7x+5y=46, (Equation 2)
Multiply Equation 1 by 5 : 5(5x+7y)=5(50) : 25x+35y=, (Equation 3).
Multiply Equation 2 by 7 : 7(7x+5y)=7(46) : 49x+35y=, (Equation 3).
Subtract Equation 3 from Equation 4 : (49x + 35y)-(25x + 35y) = 322 - 250.

Substitute x into Equation 1 : 5(3)+7y=50 : +7y=50 : y = .
