The equations are geometrically shown by a pair of coincident lines. Ifthe solutions of the equations are given by the common points. then what are the common points in this case?
Scale xaxis 1 cm-100 units yaxis: 1em=100 units From the graph, we observe that every point on the line is a common solution to both the equations. So, they have infinitely many solutions as both the equations are equivalent. Such pairs of equations are called consistent and dependent pair of linear equations in two variables. This system of equations that has solution are known as "consistent equations

TRY THIS

In the example given above, can you find the cost of each bat and ball?

THINK - DISCUSS

Is a dependent pair of linear equations always consistent. Why or why not?

DO THIS

Solve the following systems of equations: 11-2y=0 a) x+y=2 2x+2y=4 ) 2x-y-4 4x-2y=6 3x+4y=20 Represent the following pair of linear equations graphically. x+2y-4=0 and 2x+4y-12=0. Represent this situation graphically.

4.2.3 RELATION BETWEEN COEFFICIENTS AND NATURE OF SYSTEM OF EQUATIONS

Leta, b, c, and a, b, c, denote the coefficients of a given pair of linear equations in two variables. Then, let us write and compare the values of in the above examples.
