Solution
The correct option is B(−20,30) x−y=−50 ...... (1) x+y=10 ...... (2) Substitute the values of first option x=−20 and y=30 in equations 1 and 2 x−y=−50 −20−30=−50 −50=−50 which is true x+y=10 −20+30=10 10=10 which is true Therefore, the first option satisfied the linear equations. Likewise substitute the value of second option x=20,y=−30 x−y=−50 20−(−30)=−50 50≠−50 x+y=10 20+(−30)=10 −10≠10 Similarly, x=−20,y=−30
