9. Assertion (A): The linear equation in two variables is represented by ax + by + c = 0. Where a,
b, and c are the whole numbers.
Reason (R): The linear equation in two variables have infinitely many solutions.
10. Assertion(A) :The point (1, 1) is the solution of x + y = 2.
Reason (R) :Every point which satisfy the linear equation is a solution of the equation.
11. The cost of a plate is four times the cost of a cup. Write a linear equation in two variables to
represent the statement.

15. Tanish and Vihaan, two students of class IX, together contributes ₹ 500 towards Prime
Minister’s relief fund to help the earthquake victims. Write a linear equation which satisfies this
data and draw the graph of the same.
16. For the linear equations 3x – 5y -15 = 0, find the points where its graph intersects the coordinate
axes. Using these, draw the graphs of the equation and find the area of the triangle formed by
the line and the coordinate axes.
17. On his birthday, Manoj planned that this time he celebrates his birthday in a small orphanage
centre. He bought apples to give to children and adults working there. Manoj donated 2 apples
to each child and 3 apples to each adult working there along with Birthday cake. He distributed
60 total apples.
i) Taking the number of children as ‘x’ and the number of adults as
‘y’. Represent the above situation in linear equation in two
variables.
(ii) If the number of children is 15, then find the number of adults.
(iii) If the number of adults is 12, then find the number of children.
(iv) If x = –5 and y = 2 is a solution of the equation 3x + 5y = b,
then find the value of ‘b’.
