Question

Solve the following pair of equations graphically.
2x3y6=0;2x+y+10=0

Open in App
Solution

From equation
2x3y6=0
2x=3y+6
x=3y+62 ........(i)
when y=0,x=3×0+62=3
when y=1,x=3×(1)+62=32=1.5
when y=2,x=3×(2)+62=6+62=0
Table for equation (i)
x=3,1.5,0
y=0,1,2
Similarly from equation 2x+y+10=0
y=2x10
when x=2,y=2×210
=410=6
when x=3,y=2×310
=610=4
when x=4,y=2×410
=810=2
Table for equation (ii)
x=2,3,4
y=6,4,2
Now plotting and joining the points from table (i) and (ii) we find that the lines are intersecting at a point (3,4).
Hence, the required solution is (3,4).
