NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 4 Exercise 4.1 – Linear Equations in two Variables
1. The cost of a notebook is twice the cost of a pen. Write a linear equation in two variables to represent this statement.
(Take the cost of a notebook to be Rs x and that of a pen to be Rs y).
Solution:
Let, the cost of a notebook = x
Cost of a pen = y
The cost of a notebook is twice the cost of a pen.
x = 2y
x – 2y = 0
2. Express the following linear equations in the form ax + by + c = 0 and indicate the values of a, b and c in each case:
(ii) x – (y/5) – 10 = 0
(iii) –2x + 3y = 6
(iv) x = 3y
(v) 2x = –5y
(vi) 3x + 2 = 0
(vii) y – 2 =0
(viii) 5 =2x
Solution:
(ii) Given equation :  x – (y/5) – 10 = 0
Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0 we get,
a = 1
b = (-1/5)
c = -10
(iii) Given equation : –2x + 3y = 6
It can be written as –2x + 3y – 6 = 0
Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0 we get,
a = -2
b = 3
c = -6
(iv)Â Given equation :Â Â x = 3y
It can be written as x – 3y + 0 = 0
Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0 we get,
a = 1
b = -3
c = 0
(v) Given equation :  2x = –5y
It can be written as 2x + 5y + 0 = 0
Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0 we get,
a = 2
b = 5
c = 0
(vi)Â Given equation :Â Â 3x + 2 = 0
It can be written as 3x + 0y + 2 = 0
Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0 we get,
a = 3
b = 0
c = 2
(vii) Given equation :  y – 2 = 0
It can be written as   0x + y – 2 = 0
Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0 we get,
a = 0
b = 1
c = -2
(viii)Â Given equation : Â Â 5 = 2x
It can be written as -2x + 0y + 5 = 0
Comparing this equation with ax + by + c = 0 we get,
a = -2
b = 0
c = 5
