Find the values of a and b for which the following system of linear equations represents coincident lines, 2 x a 4 y 2b 1, 4 x a 1 y 5b 1 . Solve the following system of linear equations
2 2 1 3 2 , 0, x 0, y 0 and hence find the value x 3y 6 x y

of m for which y mx 4 . Solve the following system of linear equation graphically. 4x y 8, 3x 2 y 17 . The area of a rectangle gets reduced by 9 sq. units, if its length is reduced by 5 units and breadth is increased by 3 units. If we increase the length by 3 units and breadth by 2 units, the area increased by 67 sq. units. Find the dimensions of rectangle. Solve the following system of linear equations.

The age of father is 3 years more than 3 times the sons age. 3 years hence the age of the father will be 10years more than twice the age of the son. Find their present ages. A two digit number is 3 more than 4 times the sum of its digits. If 18 is added to the number, the digits are reversed. Find the number. Solve the following system of linear equation
2 x 3 y 2, 4 x 9 y 1
