a. 5
b. 6
c. 7
d. 8
Answer: d
Explanation: 2x + 3y = k
k=2(1)+3(2) = 2+6 = 8

Q.4: Solve the following pair of linear equations by the substitution method.
(i) x + y = 14
x–y=4
(ii) 3x – y = 3
9x – 3y = 9
Solution:
(i) Given,
x + y = 14 and x – y = 4 are the two equations.
From 1st equation, we get,
x = 14 – y
Now, put the value of x in second equation to get,
(14 – y) – y = 4
14 – 2y = 4
2y = 10
Or y = 5

∵ x = 14 – y
By the value of y, we can now find the value of x;

∴ x = 14 – 5
Or x = 9
Hence, x = 9 and y = 5.
(ii) Given,
3x – y = 3 and 9x – 3y = 9 are the two equations.
From 1st equation, we get,
x = (3 + y)/3
Now, substitute the value of x in the given second equation to get,
9[(3 + y)/3] – 3y = 9
⇒ 3(3+y) – 3y = 9
⇒ 9 + 3y – 3y = 9
⇒9=9
Therefore, y has infinite values and since, x = (3 + y)/3, so x also has infinite values.
