Question

The total runs scored by two batsmen in a one-day cricket match is 215. Express this information in the form of a linear equation in two variables.

Answer 1

Let $\text{x}$ be the number of runs scored by the first batsman and $y$ be the number of runs scored by the second batsman.
Then, total runs = 215 (Given)
So, the linear equation in two variable is $x+y=215$.
