Question

A linear equation in two variables can be written in the form ax+by+c=0. Now look at the linear equations in Column-I and match them with their constant termc written in the Column-II.

Column-I Column -II
(a)5x+7y=-27(p)-17
(b)2x+y=17(q)17
(c)3y-5x+17=0(r)-27
(d)4x-3y-27=0(s)27

Solution

The correct option is B

(a)⇢ s; (b)⇢ p; (c)⇢ q; (d)⇢ r


:An equation of the form ax+by+c=0 where a,b,c are real numbers a,b0 and x,yare variables, is called a linear equation in two variables.

Here 'a' is called the coefficient of x,b' is called the coefficient of y and c' is called constant term.

Explanation for (a)

Rewritten the given equation the form ax+by+c=0

(a) 5x+7y=-27

5x+7y+27=0

Equating the above equation to the general form, we get c=27.

⇒(a)⇢ s
Therefore, (a) matches to (s)

Explanation for (b)

(b) 2x+y=17

2x+y-17=0

Equating the above equation to the general form, we get c=-17.

⇒(b)⇢ p

Therefore, (b) matches to (p)

Explanation for (c)

(c) 3y-5x+17=0

Equating the above equation to the general form, we get c=17.

⇒(c)⇢ q

Therefore, (c) matches to (q)

Explanation for (d)

(d) 4x-3y-27=0

Equating the above equation to the general form, we get c=27.

⇒(d)⇢ s

Therefore, (d) matches to (s)

By that, we conclude, (a)⇢ s; (b)⇢ p; (c)⇢ q; (d)⇢ r.

Correct Answer is option B
