Topics in Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables

1

Basic Concepts and Definitions

  • A linear equation in two variables x and y has the form ax + by + c = 0, where a, b, c are real numbers and a² + b² ≠ 0
  • A pair of linear equations in two variables consists of two such equations considered together
  • The solution of a pair is the common solution that satisfies both equations simultaneously
2

Types of Solutions Based on Line Relationships

  • Three possible relationships: intersecting lines (unique solution), parallel lines (no solution), coincident lines (infinite solutions)
  • The relationship can be determined by comparing ratios of coefficients
  • Use ratio comparison method: a₁/a₂, b₁/b₂, and c₁/c₂
3

Graphical Method

  • Plot both equations as straight lines on coordinate plane
  • Find intersection point if lines meet
  • Solution is the coordinates of intersection point
4

Substitution Method

  • Express one variable in terms of the other from either equation
  • Substitute this expression into the other equation
  • Solve the resulting single-variable equation
