Exercise 28.1


1. Find the value of ‘a’ and ‘b’ if

(a) (a + 2, 5 + b) = (1, 6)

(b) (2a + b, a – 2b) = (7, 6)

Answer

(a) Given,

Two ordered pairs are equal

a + 2 = 1 and 5 + b = 6

a = 1 – 2 b = 6 – 5

a = – 1 b = 1

Therefore,

a = –1 and b = 1

(b) Given,

Two ordered pairs are equal

2a + b = 7 …(1)

a – 2b = 6 …(2)

Multiplying equation (1) with (2), we get,

4a + 2b = 14 …(3)

On adding equation (2) and (3), we get,

(a – 2b) + (4a + 2b) = 6 + 14

⇒ 5a = 20

Hence,

a = 4

Substituting a = 4 in equation (1), we get,

2(4) + b = 7

⇒ 8 + b = 7

⇒ b = 7 – 8

⇒ b = – 1

Therefore,

a = 4 and b = -1

9Express the equation 3x + 5y + 15 = 0 in the form such that:

(a) x is subject to the formula

(b) y is dependent variable and x is independent variable

Answer

(a) 3x + 5y + 15 = 0

On calculating further, we get,

3x = -5y – 15

⇒ x = (-5y – 15)/3

We get,

x = (-5/3) y – 5

(b) 3x + 5y + 15 = 0

On further calculation, we get,

5y = – 3x – 15

⇒ y = (-3x – 15)/5

(i) 2 (x – 5) = (3/4) (y – 1)

(j) y = (3/5) x – 1

Answer

(a) x + 6y = 15

On simplification, we get,

x = 15 – 6y

When y = 1,

x = 15 – 6(1)

⇒ x = 9

When y = 2,

x = 15 – 6(2)

⇒ y = 3

When x = 4,

y = {16 – 5(4)}/2

⇒ y = -2

y = (5/2) (1) + (2/5)

y = 2.9

When x = 0,

y = (5/2) (0) + (2/5)

⇒ y = 0.4

When x = 2,

y = (5/2) (2) + (2/5)

⇒ y = 5.4

Plotting the points (1, 2.9), (0, 0.4) and (2, 5.4), we get a line segment as shown in the figure below

(h) (x – 2)/3 – (y + 1)/2 = 0

⇒ (x – 2)/3 = (y + 1)/2

⇒ 2 (x – 2) = 3 (y + 1)

⇒ 2x – 4 = 3y + 3

⇒ 3y = 2x – 7

(i) 2 (x – 5) = (3/4) (y – 1)

⇒ 8 (x – 5) = 3 (y – 1)

⇒ 8x – 40 = 3y – 3

⇒ 3y = 8x – 40 + 3

On calculating further, we get,

3y = 8x – 37

⇒ y = (8x – 37)/3

When x = 2,

y = {8 (2) – 37}/3

⇒ y = {16 – 37}/3

⇒ y = (-21/3)

⇒ y = -7

⇒ 3y = 12 – 2x

⇒ y = 4 – (2 / 3) x

When x = 3,

y = 4 – (2/3) (3)

⇒ y = 4 – 2

⇒ y = 2

When x = -3,

y = 4 – (2/3) (-3)

12. Draw the graph of the lines y = x + 2, y = 2x – 1 and y = 2 from x = -3 to 4, on the same graph paper. Check whether the lines drawn are parallel to each other.

Answer

For,

y = x + 2

When x = 0,

y = 0 + 2

⇒ y = 2

When x = 5,

y = 5 + 2

⇒ y = 7

When x = -3,

y = -3 + 2

⇒ y = -1


For,

y = 2x - 1

When x = 0,

y = 2(0) – 1

⇒ y = -1

When x = -2,

y = 2(-2) -1

⇒ y = -4 -1

⇒ y = -5

When x = 3,

y = 2(3) – 1

⇒ y = 6 – 1

⇒ y = 5

For,

y = 2 

This line is parallel to the x-axis and passes through (0, 2)

The lines are not parallel to each other


13. Find the slope of the line whose inclination is given as

(a) 0°

(b) 30°

(c) 45°

(d) 60°

Answer

(a) Slope = tan θ

= tan 0°

We get,

= 0

Hence, slope of the line is 0

(b) Slope = tan θ

= tan 30°

We get,

= 1/√3

Hence, slope of the line is 1/√3

(c) Slope = tan θ

= tan 45°

We get,

= 1

Hence, slope of the line is 1

(d) Slope = tan θ

= tan 60°

We get,

= √3

Hence, slope of the line is √3


14. Find the inclination of the line whose slope is:

(a) 1

(b) √3

Answer

(a) Slope = tan θ

1 = tan θ (given)

We know that,

tan 45° = 1

⇒ tan θ = tan 45°

Therefore,

θ = 45°

The inclination of the line is 450

(b) Slope = tan θ

√3 = tan θ (given)

We know that,

tan 60° = √3

⇒ tan θ = tan 60°

Therefore,

θ = 60°

The inclination of the line is 60°


15. Find the slope and y-intercept for each of the following equations:

(a) 3x – 8y + 24 = 0

(b) 6x = 7y – 12

Answer

(a) 3x – 8y + 24 = 0

⇒ 8y = 3x + 24

⇒ y = (3/8) x + (24/8)

We get,

y = (3/8) x + 3

Hence,

Slope = (3/8) and intercept = 3

(b) 6x = 7y – 12

⇒ 7y = 6x + 12

We get,

y = (6/7) x + (12/7)

Hence,

Slope = (6/7) and intercept = (12/7)
