Q13. Laxmi purchases some bananas and some oranges .Each banana costs Rs.2 while each orange costs Rs.3. If the total amount paid by Laxmi was Rs.30 and the number of oranges purchased by her was 6, then how many bananas did she purchase?
Solution
Let us assume that Laxmi purchased x bananas and y oranges.
Since each banana costs Rs.2, x bananas cost Rs.2 × x = Rs.2x
Similarly, each orange costs Rs.3.
Thus, y oranges cost Rs.3 × y = Rs.3y
Thus, the total amount paid by Laxmi is Rs. (2x + 3y), which equals Rs.30
Thus, we can express the given information in the form of a linear equation as
2x + 3y =3 0
Now, we know that Laxmi purchased 6 oranges, i.e., the value of y is 6.
Substitute this value of y in the equation 2x + 3y = 30, thereby reducing it to a linear equation in one variable.
We can then solve the equation to obtain the value of x.
Thus, we see that the value of x is 6, i.e., Laxmi purchased 6 bananas.
Thus, we see that the value of x is 6, i.e., Laxmi purchased 6 bananas.

Hence,
four solutions of equation 2x - y = 4
are (0, -4), (1, -2), (2, 0), (3, 2).

(0,
-4) is the point where the line will cut the y- axis.
Q67. John age is 10 years less than three times his son’s age. If John son is 20 years old, then how old is John?
Solution
Let us assume that John age is x years and his son’s age is y years.
A linear equation in two variables can be formed to represent the given statement as
x = 3y – 10
We know that the age of John’s son is 20 years. This implies that the value of y is 20.
Substituting this value of y in the equation x = 3y – 10, we get:
x = 3 × 20 – 10
Þ x = 60 – 10
Þ x = 50
Thus, John’s age is 50 years.
Q68. 4 years ago, age of a mother was 3 times

Solution
Q72. If one of the angle of the triangle is equal to the sum of the other two angles .Express this information into equivalent linear equation of two variables
and also find the angles of triangle id measure of one of the angle is 60 degree.
Solution
Let the first angle = x
Let the second angle=y
According to the given information, Third angle=x+y
We know that sum of angles in a triangle is equal to 180 degree.
So,
X+y+(x+y)=180
2x+2y=180
X+y=90 (i)
Now measure of one angle=60 degree.
Substituting in (i) we get
60+y=90
y=90-60=30
Third angle=x+y=60+30=90
Thus angles of triangle are 60, 30 and 90 degrees
