cbse ncert 10th mathematics chapter 3 exercise 3.5pair of linear equations in two variables
Which of the following pairs of linear equations has unique solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. In case there is a unique solution, find it by using cross multiplication method.
(iii)
3x – 5y = 20
6x – 10y = 40
re writing the equations
3x-5y-20=0
6x-10y-40=0
a1=3 , b1 =(-5) c1 = (-20)
a2 =6 b2 = (-10) c2 = (-40)
a1/a2 = 3/6=1/2
b1/b2 = (-5)/(-10) =1/2
c1/c2 =(-20)/(-40) =1/2
therefore
a1/a2 =b1/b2 =c1/c2
therefore the system has infinitely many solutions
put y =t
use first equation
3x-5(t)-20=0
x = (20+5t)/3
solution is
x = (20+5t)/3
y =t
where t is any real number
(iv)
x – 3y – 7 = 0
3x – 3y – 15 = 0
a1=1 , b1 =(-3) c1 = (-7)
a2 =3 b2 = (-3) c2 = (-15)
a1/a2 = 1/3
b1/b2 = (-3)/(-3) =1
a1/a2 =/=(not equal) b1/b2
so system has unique solution
use cross multiplication method
x y 1
(-3 ) (-7) 1 (-3)
(-3) (-15) 3 (-3)
x / [(-3)(-15) - (-3)(-7)] = y / [(-7)(3)- (-15)(1)] = 1/[1(-3) - 3(-3)]
x /[45-21] = y/[-21+15] = 1/[-3+9]
x/24 = y/[-6] = 1/6
using first and last
x/24 =1/6
x = 24/6
x=4
using first and third
y/[-6] = 1/6
y = (-6)/6
y=(-1)

The ages of two friends Ani and Biju differ by 3 years. Ani’s father is twice as old as Ani and Biju is twice as old as his sister Cathy. The ages of Cathy and Ani’s father differ by 30 years. Find the ages of Ani and Biju
2. One says, “Give me a hundred, friend! I shall then become twice as rich as you”. The other replies, “If you give me ten, I shall be six times as rich as you”. Tell me what is the amount of their (respective) capital?
3. A train covered a certain distance at a uniform speed. If the train would have been 10 km/h faster, it would have taken 2 hours less than the scheduled time. And, if the train were slower by 10 km/h; it would have taken 3 hours more than the scheduled time. Find the distance covered by the train.

A part of monthly hostel charges is fixed and the remaining depends on the
number of days one has taken food in the mess. When a student A takes food for
20 days she has to pay Rs.1000 as hostel charges whereas a student B, who takes
food for 26 days, pays Rs.1180 as hostel charges. Find the fixed charges and the
cost of food per day.
