Q.1. Assertion: The graph of the linear equations 3x+2y=12 and 5x-2y=4 gives a pair of intersecting lines.
Reason: The graph of linear equations a₁x+b₁y+c₁=0 and a₂x+b₂y+c₂=0 gives a pair of intersecting lines if a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂

Answer

Answer: (a)

Q.2. Assertion: If the pair of lines are coincident, then we say that pair of lines is consistent and it has a unique solution.
Reason: If the pair of lines are parallel, then the pairs has no solution and is called inconsistent pair of equations.

Answer

Answer: (d)
