LINEAR EQUATION IN TWO VARIABLES

An equation is said to be linear equation in two variables if it is written in the form of ax + by + c = 0, where
a, b & c are real numbers and the coefficients of x and y, that is a and b respectively, are not equal to zero.
For example, 10x + 4y = 3 and -x + 5y = 2 are linear equations in two variables.
A linear equation with two variables has an infinite number of solutions.
For example, x + y = 5 has many solutions such as (0,5), (5,0), (1,4), (4,1), (2,3), (3,2), etc.

Things to remember!

the three numbers is equal to 16. The sum of oranges, mangoes, and apples. A person who
the first number and the second number is buys 1 kg of oranges, 3 kg of mangoes, and 2 kg
equal to the third number minus two. The value of apples will have to pay Rp.33,000. People who
of the number is equal to 21 times the sum of buy 2 kg of oranges, 1 kg of mangoes, and 1 kg of
the three numbers then supplemented by 13. apples will have to pay Rp.23,500. People who
Determine that number. buy 1 kg of oranges, 2 kg of mangoes, and 3 kg of

of hundreds, y occupies a place of tens, and z
occupies a unit place. So, the value of the number Solution:
is 100x + 10y + z. Based on the data on the Suppose the price per kilogram of orange is x, the
question, SETV was obtained as follows: price per kilogram of mangoes is y, and the price per
kilogram of apple is z. Based on the above problems,
x + y + z = 16 → Equation (1) a system of three-variable linear equations is
x+y=z–2 obtained:
x + y – z = –2 → Equation (2)
100x + 10y + z = 21(x + y + z) + 13 x + 3y + 2z = 33.000 → Equation (1)
79x – 11y – 20z = 13 → Equation (3) 2x + y + z = 23.500 → Equation (2)
x + 2y + 3z = 36.500 → Equation (3)
● Elimination variable x and y from (1) and (2)
…+…+… = ● Elimination variable x from (1) and (2)
…+…–… = − x + 3y +2z = 33.000 |×2| → …. + …. + ….= …..
… =… 2x + y + z = 23.500 |×1| → …. + …. + ….= ….. −
z=… …. + …. = ….. (4)

● Elimination variable y from (1) and (3) ● Elimination variable x from (2) and (3)
x + y + z = 16 |×11| → …. + …. + …. = …. x + 3y +2z = 33.000
79x –11y – 20z = 13 |×1|→ …. – …. – ….= ….+ x + 2y +3z = 36.500 −
…. – …. = …. (4) …. – …. = …….
y = …. – …. (5)
Substitute z = …. to …. – …. = …. (4)
⇒ …. – …. = …. Substitute y = …. – …. to …. + …. = ….. (4)
⇒ …. – …(…) = …. ⇒ …. + …. = ……
⇒ …. – …. = …. ⇒ 5(…. – …..) + …. = ……
⇒ …. = …. + …. ⇒ 5… – …… + …. = ……
⇒ …. = …. ⇒ …... – …… = ……
⇒ x = …. ⇒ …. = …… + ……
⇒ …. = ……
Substitute x = …. and z = …. to (1) ⇒ z = ……
⇒x+y+z = 16
⇒ …. + …. + 9 = 16 Substitute z = …… to y = …. – ….. (5)
⇒ y + …. = 16 ⇒ y = …. – …..
⇒ y = 16 – …. ⇒ y = ….. – …..
⇒ y = …. ⇒ y = …..

So, x = …., y = …., z = …. and the number is …... Substitute y = …... and z = …... to (1)
⇒ x + 3y + 2z = ……..
⇒ x + 3(…...) + 2(……) = ……..
⇒ x + …..… + ..…… = ……..
⇒ x + …….. = ……..
⇒ x = …….. – ……..
⇒ x = ……..

So, the price of orange is Rp……../kg, mango is

Rp……../kg and apple is Rp……../kg.
