Write an equation of a line passing through the point representing solution of the pair of linear equations $ x+y=2 $ and $ 2 x-y=1 $. How many such lines can we find?
Given:
Given pair of linear equations is $x + y = 2$ and $2x - y = 1$.
To do:
We have to write an equation of a line passing through the point representing solution of the given pair of linear equations.
Solution:
$x+y=2$
$y=2-x$...(i)
Substituting $y=2-x$ in $2x - y = 1$, we get,
$2x-(2-x)=1$
$2x-2+x=1$
$3x=2+1$
$3x=3$
$x=\frac{3}{3}$
$x=1$
Substituting $x=1$ in $y=2-x$, we get,
$y=2-1$
$y=1$
Therefore, the solution of the given pair of equations is $(x, y)=(1, 1)$.
We know that,
There are infinite lines passing through a point $(x, y)$.
Therefore, there are infinite lines passing through the solution of the given pair of equations $(1, 1)$.
The general form of a linear equation in two variables is $ax+by+c=0$.
An equation of a line passing through the point representing solution of the pair of linear equations $x + y = 2$ and $2x - y = 1$ is $4x-y=3$.
