10th Class Mathematics Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables Question Bank Assertion and Reason MCQs - Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables

  • question_answer
    Directions: Each of these questions contains two statements: Assertion [A] and Reason [R]. Each of these questions also has four alternative choices, any one of which is the correct answer. You have to select one of the codes [a], [b], [c] and [d] given below.
    Assertion [A] Pair of linear equations :
    \[9x+3y+12=0\], \[18x+6y+24=0\]have infinitely many solutions.
    Reason [R] Pair of linear equations
    \[{{a}_{1}}x+{{b}_{1}}y+{{c}_{1}}=0\] and \[{{a}_{2}}x+{{b}_{2}}y+{{c}_{2}}=0\]have infinitely many solutions, if
    \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\frac{{{b}_{1}}}{{{b}_{2}}}=\frac{{{c}_{1}}}{{{c}_{2}}}.\]

    A) A is true, R is true; R is a correct explanation for A.

    B) A is true, R is true; R is not a correct explanation for A.

    C) A is true; R is False.

    D) A is false; R is true.

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    From the given equations, we have
    \[\frac{9}{18}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{12}{24}\]
    \[\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\] i.e., \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\frac{{{b}_{1}}}{{{b}_{2}}}=\frac{{{c}_{1}}}{{{c}_{2}}}\]
    Both Assertion [A] and Reason [R] are true and Reason [R] is the correct explanation of Assertion [A].
