EXERCISE 4
Q1. Give the geometric representations of y = 3 as an equation.
(i) in one variable
(ii) in two variables.
Sol. (i) y = 3
(ii) y = 3
⇒0x + y = 3
⇒0x + y – 3 = 0
which is in fact y = 3
It is a line parallel to x-axis at a positive distance of 3 from it. We have two solution
for it. i.e. (0, 3), (1, 3).(0, 3)
(1, 3)
Q2. Give the geometric representation of 2x + 9 = 0 as and equation,

9= - 4.5
(iii)
Given equation is
2x + 9 = 0

2x + 0y + 9 = 0
{we know that it is actually 2x + 9 = 0}

x = -

9= - 4.5
It is line parallel to y-axis at a negative distance we have the two points lying it, the
points are A(-4.5, 0), B(-4.5, 2).
(-4.5, 2)
(-4.5, 0)
