4. Linear Equations in Two Variables
easy

Write whether the following statements are True or False? Justify your answers.

$(i)$ $a x+b y+c=0,$ where $a, b$ and $c$ are real numbers, is a linear equation in two variables.

$(ii)$ A linear equation $2 x+3 y=5$ has a unique solution.

$(iii)$ All the points $(2,0),(-3,0),(4,2)$ and $(0,5)$ lie on the $x$ -axis.

Option A
Option B
Option C
Option D

Solution

$(i)$ False, because $a x+b y+c=0$ is a linear equation in two variables if both $a$ and $b$ are non-zero.

$(ii)$ False, because a linear equation in two variables has infinitely many solutions.

$(iii)$ False, the points $(2,0),(-3,0)$ lie on the $x$ -axis. The point $(4,2)$ lies in the first quadrant. The point $(0,5)$ lies on the $y$ -axis.
