  1. 1. The pair x + 2y = 4 and 2x + 4y = 12 has:
    • (a) a unique solution
    • (b) exactly two solutions
    • (c) no solution
    • (d) infinitely many solutions
  2. 2. If a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂, the pair has:
    • (a) a unique solution
    • (b) no solution
    • (c) no real meaning
    • (d) infinitely many solutions
  3. 3. The solution of x + y = 5 and x − y = 1 is:
    • (a) (4, 1)
    • (b) (3, 2)
    • (c) (2, 3)
    • (d) (1, 4)
  4. 4. Two lines coincide when:
    • (a) a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂
    • (b) they are perpendicular
    • (c) a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂
    • (d) a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ ≠ c₁/c₂
  5. 5. Is the pair 2x + 3y = 7 and 4x + 6y = 14 consistent?
  6. 6. Solve 2x = y and x + y = 6.
  7. 7. Solve 3x − 5y = −2 and 2x + y = 4 by elimination.

  1. 1. (c) no solution1/2 = 2/4 ≠ −4/−12, so the lines are parallel — no solution.
  2. 2. (a) a unique solutionUnequal ratios of x and y coefficients ⇒ intersecting lines ⇒ unique solution.
  3. 3. (b) (3, 2)Adding gives 2x = 6, x = 3, y = 2.
  4. 4. (a) a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂All three ratios equal ⇒ coincident lines ⇒ infinitely many solutions.
  5. 5. Ratios: 2/4 = 3/6 = 7/14 = 1/2, so the lines coincide — consistent with infinitely many solutions.
  6. 6. Substitute y = 2x: x + 2x = 6 ⇒ x = 2, y = 4.
  7. 7. Multiply the second by 5: 10x + 5y = 20. Add to the first: 13x = 18 ⇒ x = 18/13. Hmm; instead multiply second by 5 and add: 3x − 5y = −2 and 10x + 5y = 20 give 13x = 18, x = 18/13, then y = 4 − 2(18/13) = (52 − 36)/13 = 16/13. Solution: (18/13, 16/13).
