Take MCQ Mathematics Test

1.
The ratio of girls and boys in a class is 1:3. Set up an equation between the students of a class and boys and then draw its graph. Also find the number of boys in a class of 40 students from the graph.
2.

(ii) Find the age of Aknil from the graph, when age of Amit is 14 years.
3.
Write the equation of lines p and r in the given graph.
A student answered the equation of a line 'q' as x+y=1. Did he answered correctly? Also, find the area of lines enclosed between p,q and r.

4.
5.

7.
A part of family budget on milk is constant and is fixed at Rs.500, while the other is variable and it depends on the need for milk at the rate of Rs.20 per litre.If extra milk taken is x litre and total expenditure on milk is Rs y, then write a linear equation for this problem. Draw its graph.
8.
If x is the number of hours a labourer is on work and y his wages in rupees then y = 4x + 3. Draw the work wages graph of this equation. From the graph, find the wages of a labourer who puts in 4 hours of work
9.
Draw the graph of the equations x = 3 and 4x = 3y in the same graph.Find the area of the triangle formed by these two lines and the x-axis
10.
Draw the graph of linear equation 4x + 3y = 36. From the graph, find the value of y when x = 3 and value of x when y = 6.
1.
Total students in the class=y
Leth the boys in the class= x, then equation between the students and the boys
\(y=\frac{4}{3}x\)
Now
| x | 0 | 30 | 60 |
| y | 0 | 40 | 80 |
Now, draw a graph between these points.

From the graph it is clear that there are 30 boys in a class of 40 students.
2.
Let Age of Amit= x years
Age of Akhil= y years
(i) According to the question the linear equation for the above situation isx+y=25
y=25-x
| x | 0 | 10 | 15 |
| y | 25 | 15 | 10 |

(ii) From the graph when Amit's age=14 years, then Akhil's age =11 years.
3.
Equation of p is x=-1
Equation of r is y=-2
Yes, the equation of q is
x+y=1
Area \(=\frac{1}{2}\times4\times 4=8\) sq.units
4.

5.
Given equation is 3x+4y=6
(i) When it cuts x-axis then
put y=0, i.e 3x=6
x=2
Hence point on x-axis is (2,0)
(ii) when it cuts y-axis then
put x=0 i.e., 4y=6
y=3/2
hence point on y-axis is \((0,{3\over2})\)
3x+4y=6
\(\Rightarrow y=\frac{6-3x}{4}\)
| x | 2 | -2 | 6 |
| y | 0 | 3 | -3 |

6.
\({2\over3}x-y=2\)
\(\Rightarrow 2x-3y=6\)
\(\Rightarrow 2x=3y+6\)
\(\Rightarrow x=\frac{3y+6}{2}\)
(i) When the line cuts x-axis then put y=0
i.e., 2x=6
x=3
Hence point is (3,0)
(ii) When the line cuts y-axis then put x=0
i.e., 3y+6=0
y=-2
Hence point is (0,-2)
| x | 0 | 3 | 6 |
| y | -2 | 0 | 2 |

7.
According to the question, the linear
equation for the given problem is
=> y = 500 + 20x ... (1)
Table of solution
| x | 0 | 5 |
|---|---|---|
| y | 500 | 600 |
We plot the points (0, 500) and (5, 600) on a graph paper and join the same by a ruler to get the line which is the graph of the equation (1).

8.
We have
y=4x+3
Table of solution
| x | 0 | 1 |
|---|---|---|
| y | 3 | 7 |

We plot the points (0,3) and (1, 7) on a graph paper and join the same by a ruler to get the line, which is the graph of the equation y = 4x + 3.
This gives the work wages graph of the given equation.
Now, on x-axis, take a point P(4, 0). From P draw a line parallel to y-axis intersecting the work wage graph at Q. From Q, draw a line parallel to x-axis to intersect the y-axis at R. We see that R is (0, 19).
Hence, the wages of a laborer who puts in 4 hours of work is Rs.19.
9.
x = 3 represents a line parallel to y-axis at a distance of 3 units to the right of the origin.
4x= 3y
\(\Rightarrow\ \ \ y={4x\over 3}\)
Table of solution
| x | 0 | 3 |
|---|---|---|
| y | 0 | 4 |
We plot the points (0,0) and (3, 4) on a graph paper and join the same by a ruler to get the line which is the graph of the equation 4x = 3y.

Area of the triangle GAB formed by the given two lines and the x-axis \(={3\times 4\over2}=6\) square units
10.
4x + 3y = 36 .....(1)
⇒ 3y=36-4x
⇒ \(y={36-4x\over 3}\)
Table o solution
| x | 0 | 9 |
|---|---|---|
| y | 12 | 0 |
We plot points (0, 12) and (9, 0) on a graph paper and join the same by a ruler to get the line which is the graph of the equation (1).
Mark a point P(3, 0) on x-axis. From P draw PQ II y-axis to intersect the graph at Q. From Q, draw QR II x-axis to intersect the y-axis at R(O, 8).

Hence, v= 8 when x = 3.
Again, mark a point A(O, 6) on the y-axis. From A draw AB II x-axis to intersect the graph at B. From B, draw BC II y-axis to intersect the x-axis at \(C\left({9\over 2},0\right)\).
Hence \(x={9\over 2}\) when y=6
