Question 101.


In the equation x=10y24, sum of the coefficients of dependent and independent variables is ___.


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. ->
:

The value of x depends on the value of y. So the dependent variable is x and the independent variable is y.


Sum of the coefficients of dependent and independent variable =(10+1)=11


Question 102.


What is the value of x if 4x7=3x+5


  1.     1
  2.     12
  3.     3
  4.     5
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 12
:
B
The given equation is,
       4x7=3x+5
On transposing,
       4x3x=7+5          x=12
Question 103.


3x+15=10 is a simple equation. If 5 is added to the left-hand side of the equation, the equation remains the same as the given equation.


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     11,12,13
  4.     13,12,11
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
If 5 is added to the left-hand side of the equation 3x+15=10, we get 3x+15+5=10.
The value on the left-hand side is increased but it remains same on the right-hand side. So, equality doesn't hold good now. 3x+15+510.
Equality sign remains unchanged only when same quantity is added on both sides, i.e., 3x+15+5=10+5.
Thus, the equation does not remain same as the given equation.
Question 104.


One-fourth of a number is 3 more than 7. Find the number.  [2 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
Framing of equation: 1 Mark
Solution: 1 Mark
Let us take the unknown number to be y.
One-fourth of y is y4 .
This number y4 is more than 7 by 3.
Hence we get the equation for y as y47=3
y47=3
 y4=3+7=10
 y=40
Question 105.


Write the equation p+4=15 in statement form. [1 MARK]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

The sum of numbers p and 4 is 15.


Question 106.


(a) If 5z + 27 = 3z + 33, find the value of z. [2 MARKS]
(b) If 7x + 14 = 34 - 3x, find the value of x.


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

Each part: 1 Mark
(a) 5z+27=3z+33
5z3z=3327
2z=6
z=3
z=3.
(b) 7x+14=343x
7x+14=343x
7x+3x=3414
10x=20
x=2010=2


Question 107.


(a) Find x for the following equation: 4x + 10 = 20
(b) Write an equation for the following case:
Irfan says that he has 7 marbles more than five times the marbles Parmeet has. Irfan has 37 marbles. (Take 'm' to be the number of Parmeet’s marbles.)  [2 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

Solution: 1 Mark each
(a) 4x+10=20
Dividing all the terms by 2, we get
2x+5=10
2x=5
x=52
x=2.5
(b) Let the number of marbles Parmeet has = m
No. of marble Irfan has in terms of m = 5m+7
Given that Irfan has 37 marbles, the equation so formed will be
5m+7=37


Question 108.


What is the difference between an equation and an expression? [2 MARK]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

Definition of Each: 1 Mark
A combination of variables and constants connected by the arithmetic operators such as addition(+), subtraction(-), multiplication(x) and division(÷) is called an expression.
e.g. (3x7) is an expression.
An equation is a mathematical statement wherein two expressions are set equal to each other.
e.g. (3x7)=65 is an equation.
       (3x7)=6y+8 is an equation.


Question 109.


(a) What is the value of x in the figure given below if it is known that perimeter of the triangle is 86?


(a) What Is The Value Of X In The Figure Given Below If It I...
(b) Frame
 an equation for the following case and find the value of the unknown:
In an isosceles triangle, the vertex angle is twice of either base angles. (Let the base angle be b in degrees. Remember that the sum of angles of a triangle is 180 degrees). [3 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

(a) 1 Mark
(b) Framing the equation: 1 Mark
     Solution: 1 Mark
(a) Since it is a triangle, the perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of all the sides of the triangle.
     So, x+(x+3)+41=86

     2x+44=86
     2x=42
 
    x=21.
(b) Let the base angle be b
     Let the vertex angle be a
    In an isosceles triangle base angles are equal.
    a+b+b=180
    2b+b+b=180 Given that vertex angle is twice the base angle.
    4b=180
    b=(1804)
    b=45


Question 110.


Write the equations for the following relations and find the unknown values:  [3 MARKS]
a) One-third of a number plus 5 is 8.
b) A number is multiplied by 4 and the product is added to 8 to get double the original number.
c) The difference between three times x and 11 is 31. 


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

Each part: 1 Mark
The equations are as follows:
a) Let the number be x
    x3+5=8.
    x3=85.
    x3=3.
    x=9.
b) Let the number be x
    (4×x)+8=2×x.
     4x+8=2x.
     4x2x=8.
     2x=8.
     x=4
c) (3×x)11=31.
    3x11=31.
    3x=31+11.
    3x=42.
    x=14.
