Q) Draw the graph of the following equations: x + y = 5, x – y = 5, and
(i) find the solution of the equations from the graph.
(ii) shade the triangular region formed by the lines and the y-axis.
Ans: (i) Solution of the equations:
Step 1: Let’s find the points on both lines and plot on the graph paper:
a) x + y = 5
(b) x – y = 5
Step 2: Now let’s plot both of these lines connecting each of the points:
From the diagram, we can see that he lines intersect each other at point (5,0)
Therefore, the solution of the lines is (5,0).
(ii) triangular region between lines and y-axis:
The triangular area between the lines and Y-axis is shaded in the above diagram.
