Five linear equations in two variables are as follows:
i. 3x + 4y – 12 = 0
ii. 3x – 4y + 12 = 0
iii. 5x + 5y – 6 = 0
iv. 7x + 12y – 11 = 0
v. x – y + 5 = 0

Question 2.
Write five solutions of the equation x + y = 1.
Answer:
i. x = 1, y = 6
ii. x = -1, y = 8
iii. x = 5, y = 2
iv. x = 0, y = 7
v. x = 10, y = -3

Question 3.
Solve the following sets of simultaneous equations.
i. x + y = 4 ; 2x – 5y = 1
ii. 2x + y = 5 ; 3x – y = 5
iii. 3x – 5y = 16; x – 3y= 8
iv. 2y – x = 0; 10x + 15y = 105
v. 2x + 3y + 4 = 0; x – 5y = 11
vi. 2x – 7y = 7; 3x + y = 22
Solution:
i. Substitution Method:
x + y = 4
∴ x = 4 – y …(i)
2x – 5y = 1 ……(ii)
Substituting x = 4 – y in equation (ii),
2(4 – y) – 5y = 1
∴ 8 – 2y – 5y = 1
∴ 8 – 7y = 1
∴ 8 – 1 = 7y
∴ 7 = 7y
∴ y = \(\frac { 7 }{ 7 }\)
∴ y = 1
Substituting y = 1 in equation (i),
x = 4 – 1 = 3
∴ (3,1) is the solution of the given equations.

Alternate method:
Elimination Method:
x + y = 4 …(i)
2x – 5y = 1 ……(ii)
Multiplying equation (i) by 5,
5x + 5y = 20 … (iii)
Adding equations (ii) and (iii),
2x – 5y = 1
+ 5x + 5y = 20
7 = 21
∴ x = \(\frac { 21 }{ 7 }\)
∴ x = 3
Substituting x = 3 in equation (i),
3 + y = 4
∴ y = 4 – 3 = 1
(3,1) is the solution of the given equations.

ii. 2x + y = 5 …(i)
3x – y = 5 …(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),
2x + y = 5
+ 3x – y = 5
5x = 10
∴ x = \(\frac { 10 }{ 5 }\)
∴ x = 2
Substituting x = 2 in equation (i),
2(2) + y = 5
4 + y = 5
∴ y = 5 – 4 = 1
∴ (2, 1) is the solution of the given equations.

iii. 3x – 5y = 16 …(i)
x – 3y = 8
∴x = 8 + 3y …..(ii)
Substituting x = 8 + 3y in equation (i),
3(8 + 3y) – 5y = 16
24 + 9y- 5y = 16
∴4y= 16 – 24
∴ 4y = -8
∴ y = \(\frac { -8 }{ 4 }\)
y = -2
Substituting y = -2 in equation (ii),
x = 8 + 3 (-2)
∴ x = 8 – 6 = 2
∴ (2, -2) is the solution of the given equations.

iv. 2y – x = 0
∴ x = 2y …(i)
10x + 15y = 105 …(ii)
Substituting x = 2y in equation (ii),
10(2y) + 15y = 105
∴ 20y + 15y = 105
∴ 35y = 105
∴ y = \(\frac { 105 }{ 35 }\)
∴ y = 3
Substituting y = 3 in equation (i),
x = 2y
∴ x = 2(3) = 6
∴ (6, 3) is the solution of the given equations.

v. 2x + 3y + 4 = 0 …(i)
x – 5y = 11
∴x = 11 + 5y …(ii)
Substituting x = 11 + 5y in equation (i),
2(11 +5y) + 3y + 4 = 0
∴ 22 + 10y + 3y + 4 = 0
∴ 13y + 26 = 0
∴ 13y = -26
∴y = \(\frac { -26 }{ 13 }\)
∴ y = -2
Substituting y = -2 in equation (ii),
x = 11 + 5y
∴ x = 11 + 5(-2)
∴ x = 11 – 10 = 1
∴ (1, -2) is the solution of the given equations.

vi. 2x – 7y = 7 …(i)
3x + y = 22
∴ y = 22 – 3x ……(ii)
Substituting y = 22 – 3x in equation (i),
2x – 7(22 – 3x) = 7
∴ 2x – 154 + 21x = 7
∴ 23x = 7 + 154
∴ 23x = 161
∴ x = \(\frac { 161 }{ 23 }\)
∴ x = 7
Substituting x = 7 in equation (ii),
y = 22 – 3x
∴ y = 22 – 3(7)
∴ 7 = 22 -21= 1
∴ (7, 1) is the solution of the given equations.

Question 1.
Solve the following equations. (Textbook pg. no. 80)
i. m + 3 = 5
ii. 3y + 8 = 22
iii. \(\frac { x }{ 3 }\) = 2
iv. 2p = p + \(\frac { 4 }{ 9 }\)
Solution:
i. m + 3 = 5
m = 5 – 3
∴m = 2

ii. 3y + 8 = 22
∴ 3y = 22 – 8
∴ 3y = 14
∴ y = \(\frac { 14 }{ 9 }\)

iii. \(\frac { x }{ 3 }\) = 2
∴ x = 2 × 3
∴ x = 6

iv. 2p = p + \(\frac { 4 }{ 9 }\)
∴ 2p – p = \(\frac { 4 }{ 9 }\)
∴ p = \(\frac { 4 }{ 9 }\)

Question 2.
Which number should be added to 5 to obtain 14? (Textbook pg. no. 80)
Solution:
x + 5 = 14
∴ x = 14 – 5
x = 9
∴ 9 + 5 = 14

Question 3.
Which number should be subtracted from 8 to obtain 2? (Textbook pg. no. 80)
Solution:
8 – y = 2
∴ y = 8 – 2
∴ y = 6
∴ 8 – 6 = 2

Question 4.

Find the condition where two equations in two variables have all solutions in common. (Textbook pg. no. 82)
Solution:
Five solutions of x + y = 5 are given below:
(1,4), (2, 3), (3, 2), (4,1), (0, 5)
The above solutions also satisfy the equation 2x + 2y = 10.
∴ x + y = 5 …[Dividing both sides by 2]
∴ If the two equations are the same, then the two equations in two variables have all solutions common.

Question 5.
3x – 4y – 15 = 0 and y + x + 2 = 0. Can these equations be solved by eliminating x ? Is the solution same? (Textbook pg. no. 84)
Solution:
3x – 4y – 15 = 0
∴ 3x – 4y = 15 …(i)
y + x + 2 = 0
∴ x + y = -2 ……(ii)
Multiplying equation (ii) by 3,
3x + 3y = -6 …(iii)
Subtracting equation (iii) from (i),

∴ y = -3
Substituting y = -3 in equation (ii),
∴ x – 3 = -2
∴ x = – 2 + 3
∴ x = 1
∴ (x, y) = ( 1, -3)
Yes, the given equations can be solved by eliminating x. Also, the solution will remain the same.

Solution:

Class 9 Maths Chapter 4 Ratio And Proportion Practice Set 4.3 Question 4.
Solve the following equations.

Solution:

This equation is true for x = 0
∴ x = 0 is one of the solutions.
If x ≠ 0, then x² ≠ 0
∴ \(\frac { 1 }{ 12x – 20 }\) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 8x + 12 }\) … [Dividing both sides by x²]
∴ 8x + 12 = 12x – 20
∴ 12 + 20 = 12x – 8x
∴ 32 = 4x
∴ x = 8
∴ x = 0 or x = 8 are the solutions of the given equation.

∴ 21(x – 5) = 4(2x + 3)
∴ 21x – 105 = 8x + 12
∴ 21x – 8x = 12 + 105
∴ 13x = 117
∴ x = 9
∴ x = 9 ¡s the solution of the given equation.

∴ 9(4x + 1) = 25(x + 3)
∴36x + 925x + 75
∴ 36x – 25 = 75 – 9
∴11x = 66
∴ x = 6
∴ x = 6 is the solution of the given equation.


∴ 4(3x – 4) = 5(x + 1)
∴ 12x – 16 = 5x + 5
∴ 12x – 5x = 5 + 16
∴ 7x = 21
∴ x = 3
∴ x = 3 ¡s the solution of the given equation.

9th Standard Maths 1 Practice Set 4.5 Chapter 4 Ratio and Proportion Textbook Answers Maharashtra Board

Class 9 Maths Part 1 Practice Set 4.5 Chapter 4 Ratio and Proportion Questions With Answers Maharashtra Board

Question 1.
Which number should be subtracted from 12, 16 and 21 so that resultant numbers are in continued proportion?
Solution:
Let the number to be subtracted be x.
∴ (12 – x), (16 – x) and (21 – x) are in continued proportion.

∴ 84 – 4x = 80 – 5x
∴ 5x – 4x = 80 – 84
∴ x = -4
∴ -4 should be subtracted from 12,16 and 21 so that the resultant numbers in continued proportion.

Question 2.
If (28 – x) is the mean proportional of (23 – x) and (19 – x), then find the value ofx.
Solution:
(28 – x) is the mean proportional of (23 – x) and (19-x). …[Given]

∴ -5(19 – x) = 9(28 – x)
∴ -95 + 5x = 252 – 9x
∴ 5x + 9x = 252 + 95
∴ 14x = 347
∴ x = \(\frac { 347 }{ 14 }\)

Question 3.
Three numbers are in continued proportion, whose mean proportional is 12 and the sum of the remaining two numbers is 26, then find these numbers.
Solution:
Let the first number be x.
∴ Third number = 26 – x
12 is the mean proportional of x and (26 – x).
∴ \(\frac { x }{ 12 }\) = \(\frac { 12 }{ 26 – x }\)
∴ x(26 – x) = 12 x 12
∴ 26x – x² = 144
∴ x² – 26x + 144 = 0
∴ x² – 18x – 8x + 144 = 0
∴ x(x – 18) – 8(x – 18) = 0
∴ (x – 18) (x – 8) = 0
∴ x = 18 or x = 8
∴ Third number = 26 – x = 26 – 18 = 8 or 26 – x = 26 – 8 = 18
∴ The numbers are 18, 12, 8 or 8, 12, 18.

Question 4.
If (a + b + c)(a – b + c) = a² + b² + c², show that a, b, c are in continued proportion.
Solution:
(a + b + c)(a – b + c) = a² + b² + c² …[Given]
∴ a(a – b + c) + b(a – b + c) + c(a – b + c) = a2 + b2 + c2
∴ a² – ab + ac + ab – b² + be + ac – be + c² = a² + b² + c²
∴ a² + 2ac – b² + c² = a² + b² + c²
∴ 2ac – b² = b²
∴ 2ac = 2b²
∴ ac = b²
∴ b² = ac
∴ a, b, c are in continued proportion.

Question 5.
If \(\frac { a }{ b }\) = \(\frac { b }{ c }\) and a, b, c > 0, then show that,
i. (a + b + c)(b – c) = ab – c²
ii. (a² + b²)(b² + c²) = (ab + be)²
iii. \(\frac{a^{2}+b^{2}}{a b}=\frac{a+c}{b}\)
Solution:
Let \(\frac { a }{ b }\) = \(\frac { b }{ c }\) = k
∴ b = ck
∴ a = bk =(ck)k
∴ a = ck² …(ii)

i. (a + b + c)(b – c) = ab – c²
L.H.S = (a + b + c) (b – c)
= [ck² + ck + c] [ck – c] … [From (i) and (ii)]
= c(k² + k + 1) c (k – 1)
= c² (k² + k + 1) (k – 1)
R.H.S = ab – c²
= (ck²) (ck) – c² … [From (i) and (ii)]
= c²k³ – c²
= c²(k³ – 1)
= c² (k – 1) (k² + k + 1) … [a³ – b³ = (a – b) (a² + ab + b²]
∴ L.H.S = R.H.S
∴ (a + b + c) (b – c) = ab – c²

ii. (a² + b²)(b² + c²) = (ab + bc)²
b = ck; a = ck²
L.H.S = (a² + b²) (b² + c²)
= [(ck²) + (ck)²] [(ck)² + c²] … [From (i) and (ii)]
= [c²k⁴ + c²k²] [c²k² + c²]
= c²k² (k² + 1) c² (k² + 1)
= c4k² (k² + 1)²
R.H.S = (ab + bc)²
= [(ck²) (ck) + (ck)c]² …[From (i) and (ii)]
= [c²k³ + c²k]²
= [c²k (k² + 1)]2 = c⁴(k² + 1)²
∴ L.H.S = R.H.S
∴ (a² + b²) (b² + c²) = (ab + bc)²

iii. \(\frac{a^{2}+b^{2}}{a b}=\frac{a+c}{b}\)

9th Standard Algebra Practice Set 4.5 Question 6. Find mean proportional of \(\frac{x+y}{x-y}, \frac{x^{2}-y^{2}}{x^{2} y^{2}}\).

AC² = AB² + BC² … [Pythagoras theorem]
= 4² + 3² = 16 + 9
∴ AC² = 25
AC = 5 … [Taking square root on both side]
The ratio of diagonal to the length of a rectangle = \(\frac { AC }{ AB }\)
= \(\frac { 5 }{ 4 }\)
= 5 : 4
∴ The ratio of diagonal to the length of a rectangle is 5 : 4

iii. The ratio of numbers denoting perimeter to area of a square, having side 4 cm. side of square = 4cm
Perimeter of square = 4 x side = 4 x 4 = 16 cm
Area of square = (side)² = (4)² = 16 cm²

Check whether the following numbers are in continued proportion.
i. 2, 4, 8
ii. 1, 2, 3
iii. 9, 12, 16
iv. 3, 5, 8
Solution:
If a, b, c are in continued proportion then b² = ac.
i. 2, 4, 8
Let, a = 2, b = 4 and c = 8
Here, b² = 4² = 16
ac = 2 x 8 = 16
∴ b² = ac
∴ 2, 4,8 are in continued proportion.

ii. 1, 2, 3
Let, a = 1, b = 2 and c = 3
Here, b² = 2² = 4
ac = 1 x 3 = 3
∴ b² ≠ ac
∴ 1, 2,3 are not in continued proportion.

iii. 9, 12, 16
Let, a = 9, b = 12 and c = 16
Here, b² = 12² = 144
ac = 9 x 16 = 144
∴ b² = ac
∴ 9, 12, 16 are in continued proportion.

iv. 3, 5, 8
Let, a = 3, b = 5 and c = 8
Here, b² = 5² = 25
ac = 3 x 8 = 24
∴ b² ≠ ac
∴ 3, 5, 8 are not in continued proportion.

Question 5.
a, b, c are in continued proportion. If a = 3 and c = 27, then find b.
Solution:
a, b, c are in continued proportion. …[Given]

1024 MB = 1 GB

ii. ₹ 17, ₹ 25 and 60 paise
₹ 17 = 17 x 100 paise = 1700 paise
₹ 25 and 60 paise = (25x 100) paise + 60 paise
= (2500 + 60) paise
= 2560 paise

iii. 5 dozen, 120 units
5 dozen = 5 x 12 units = 60 units

iv. 4 sq.m, 800 sq.cm

Std 8 Maths Practice Set 8.2 Chapter 8 Solutions Answers

Question 1.
Draw a rectangle ABCD such that l(AB) = 6.0 cm and l(BC) = 4.5 cm.
Solution:

Question 2.
Draw a square WXYZ with side 5.2 cm.
Solution:

Question 3.
Draw a rhombus KLMN such that its side is 4 cm and m∠K = 75°.
Solution:

Question 4.
If diagonal of a rectangle is 26 cm and one side is 24 cm, find the other side.
Solution:

Let ₹ABCD be the rectangle.
l(BC) = 24cm, l(AC) = 26cm
In ∆ABC,
m∠ABC = 90° …[Angle of a rectangle]
∴[l(AC)]² = [l(AB)]2 + [l(BC)]²
…[Pythagoras theorem]
∴ (26 )² = [l(AB)]² + (24)²
∴(26)² – (24)² = [l(AB)]²
∴(26 + 24) (26 – 24) = [l(AB)]²
…[∵ a² – b² = (a + b)(a – b)]
∴50 x 2 = [l(AB)]²
∴100 = [l(AB)]²
i.e. [l(AB)]² = 100
∴l(AB) = √100
…[Taking square root of both sides]
∴l(AB) =10 cm
∴The length of the other side is 10 cm.

Question 5.
Lengths of diagonals of a rhombus ABCD are 16 cm and 12 cm. Find the side and perimeter of the rhombus.
Solution:
In rhombus ABCD,

l(AC) = 16 cm and l(BD) = 12 cm.
Let the diagonals of rhombus ABCD intersect at point O.
l(AO) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) l(AC)
…[Diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other]
∴l(AO) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) × 16
∴l(AO) = 8 cm
Also, l(DO) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) l(BD)
…[Diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other]
∴l(DO) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) × 12
∴l(DO) = 6 cm
In ∆DOA,
m∠DOA = 90°
..[Diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other]
[l(AD)]² = [l(AO)]² + [l(DO)]²
…[Pythagoras theorem]

= (8)² + (6)²
= 64 + 36
∴[l(AD)]² = 100
∴l(AD) = √100
… [Taking square root of both sides]
∴l(AD) = 10 cm
∴l(AB) = l(BC) = l(CD) = l(AD) = 10 cm
…[Sides of a rhombus are congruent]
Perimeter of rhombus ABCD
= l(AB) + l(BC) + l(CD) + l(AD)
= 10+10+10+10
= 40 cm
∴The side and perimeter of the rhombus are 10 cm and 40 cm respectively.

Question 6.
Find the length of diagonal of a square with side 8 cm.
Solution:
Let ₹XYWZ be the square of side 8cm.

seg XW is a diagonal.
In ∆ XYW,
m∠XYW = 90°
… [Angle of a square]
∴ [l(XW)]² = [l(XY)]² + [l(YW)]²
…[Pythagoras theorem]
= (8)² + (8)²
= 64 + 64
∴ [l(XW)]² = 128
∴ l(XW) = √128
…[Taking square root of both sides]
= √64 × 2
= 8 √2 cm
∴ The length of the diagonal of the square is 8 √2 cm.

Question 7.
Measure of one angle of a rhombus is 50°, find the measures of remaining three angles.
Solution:
Let ₹ABCD be the rhombus.

m∠A = 50°
m∠C = m∠A
….[Opposite angles of a rhombus are congruent]
∴ m∠C = 50°
Also, m∠D = m∠B …(i)
….[Opposite angles of a rhombus are congruent]
In ₹ABCD,
m∠A + m∠B + m∠C + m∠D = 360°
….[Sum of the measures of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°]
∴ 50° + m∠B + 50° + m∠D = 360°
∴ m∠B + m∠D + 100° = 360°
∴ m∠B + m∠D = 360° – 100°
∴ m∠B + m∠B = 260° …[From (i)]
∴ 2m∠B = 260°
∴ m∠B = \(\frac { 260 }{ 2 }\)
∴ m∠B = 130°
∴ m∠D = m∠B = 130° …[From (i)]
∴ The measures of the remaining angles of the rhombus are 130°, 50° and 130°.

Solve.
ABCD is a parallelogram. The ratio of ∠A and ∠B of this parallelogram is 5 : 4. FInd the measure of ∠B. [2 Marksl
Solution:
Ratio of ∠A and ∠B for given parallelogram is 5 : 4
Let the common multiple be x.

m∠A = 5x°and m∠B=4x°
Now, m∠A + m∠B = 180° …[Adjacent angles of a parallelogram arc supplementary]
∴ 5x° + 4x°= 180°
∴ 9x° = 180°
∴ x° = 20°
∴ m∠B=4x°= 4 x 20° = 80°
∴ The measure of ∠B is 800.

ii. The ratio of present ages of Albert and Salim is 5 : 9. Five years hence ratio of their ages will be 3 : 5. Find their present ages.
Solution:
The ratio of present ages of Albert and Salim is 5 : 9
Let the common multiple be x.
∴ Present age of Albert = 5x years and
Present age of Salim = 9x years
After 5 years,
Albert’s age = (5x + 5) years and
Salim’s age = (9x + 5) years
According to the given condition,
Five years hence ratio of their ages will be 3 : 5
\(\frac{5 x+5}{9 x+5}=\frac{3}{5}\)
∴ 5(5x + 5) = 3(9x + 5)
∴ 25x + 25 = 27x + 15
∴ 25 – 15 = 27 x – 25 x
∴ 10 = 2x
∴ x = 5
∴ Present age of Albert = 5x = 5 x 5 = 25 years
Present age of Salim = 9x = 9 x 5 = 45 years
∴ The present ages of Albert and Salim are 25 years and 45 years respectively.

iii. The ratio of length and breadth of a rectangle is 3 : 1, and its perimeter is 36 cm. Find the length and breadth of the rectangle.
Solution:
The ratio of length and breadth of a rectangle is 3 : 1
Let the common multiple be x.
Length of the rectangle (l) = 3x cm
and Breadth of the rectangle (b) = x cm
Given, perimeter of the rectangle = 36 cm
Since, Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(l + b)
∴ 36 = 2(3x + x)
∴ 36 = 2(4x)
∴ 36 = 8x
∴ \(x=\frac{36}{8}=\frac{9}{2}=4.5\)
Length of the rectangle = 3x = 3 x 4.5 = 13.5 cm
∴ The length of the rectangle is 13.5 cm and its breadth is 4.5 cm.

iv. The ratio of two numbers is 31 : 23 and their sum is 216. Find these numbers.
Solution:
The ratio of two numbers is 31 : 23
Let the common multiple be x.
∴ First number = 31x and
Second number = 23x
According to the given condition,
Sum of the numbers is 216
∴ 31x + 23x = 216
∴ 54x = 216
∴ x = 4
∴ First number = 31x = 31 x 4 = 124
Second number = 23x = 23 x 4 = 92
∴ The two numbers are 124 and 92.

v. If the product of two numbers is 360 and their ratio is 10 : 9, then find the numbers.
Solution:
Ratio of two numbers is 10 : 9
Let the common multiple be x.
∴ First number = 10x and
Second number = 9x
According to the given condition,
Product of two numbers is 360
∴ (10x) (9x) = 360
∴ 90x² = 360
∴ x² = 4
∴ x = 2 …. [Taking positive square root on both sides]
∴ First number = 10x = 10x² = 20
Second number = 9x = 9x² = 18
∴ The two numbers are 20 and 18.

Question 5.
If a : b = 3 : 1 and b : c = 5 : 1, then find the value of [3 Marks each]

Solution:
Given, a : b = 3 : 1
∴ \(\frac { a }{ b }\) = \(\frac { 3 }{ 1 }\)
∴ a = 3b ….(i)
and b : c = 5 : 1
∴ \(\frac { b }{ c }\) = \(\frac { 5 }{ 1 }\)
b = 5c …..(ii)
Substituting (ii) in (i),
we get a = 3(5c)
∴ a = 15c …(iii)

Ratio and Proportion 9th Class Practice Set 4.1 Question 6. If \(\sqrt{0.04 \times 0.4 \times a}=0.4 \times 0.04 \times \sqrt{b}\) , then find the ratio \(\frac { a }{ b }\).
Solution:
\(\sqrt{0.04 \times 0.4 \times a}=0.4 \times 0.04 \times \sqrt{b}\) … [Given]
∴ 0.04 x 0.4 x a = (0.4)² x (0.04)² x b … [Squaring both sides]

9th Algebra Practice Set 4.2 Question 7. (x + 3) : (x + 11) = (x – 2) : (x + 1), then find the value of x.
Solution:
(x + 3) : (x + 11) = (x- 2) : (x+ 1)
\(\quad \frac{x+3}{x+11}=\frac{x-2}{x+1}\)
∴ (x + 3)(x +1) = (x – 2)(x + 11)
∴ x(x +1) + 3(x + 1) = x(x + 11) – 2(x + 11)
∴ x² + x + 3x + 3 = x² + 1 lx – 2x – 22
∴ x² + 4x + 3 = x² + 9x – 22
∴ 4x + 3 = 9x – 22
∴ 3 + 22 = 9x – 4x
∴ 25 = 5x
∴ x = 5
