8. At present, Thenmozhi’s age is 5 years more than that of Murali’s age. Five years ago, the ratio of Thenmozhi’s age to Murali’s age was 3:2. Find their present ages.

9. Plot the following points in a graph sheet.
A(5,2), B( − 7, − 3), C( − 2,4), D( − 1, − 1), E(0, − 5), F(2,0), G(7, − 4), H( − 4,0), I(2,3), J(8, − 4), K(0,7).

10. A line passing through (4, −2) and intersects the Y-axis at (0, 2). Find a point on the line in the second quadrant.

11. Draw the graph of the following equations
(i) x = −7 (ii) y = 6

12. 5 x 3 = 15
13. Solve 2x + 5 = 9

14. Solve $\frac { 4y }{ 3 } -7=\frac { 2 }{ 5 } y$

15. Graph the equation y = x + 1.
Begin by choosing a couple of values for x and y. It will firstly help to see
(i) what happens to y when x is zero and
(ii) what happens to x when y is zero.
After this we can go on to find one or two more values.
Let us find at least two more ordered pairs. For easy graphing, let us avoid fractional answers. We shall make suitable guesses.
