2.
The line passing through (2,14) is
2y=14x
or y=7x
Infinitely many lines are there
The equation in the form ax+by+c=0 is
7x-y+0=0
3.
x+y+1=0, 2x+x=2, 3y+x=9; infinitely many
4.
2x=-5y
2x+5y+0=0
Comparing with ax+by+c=0, we get
a=2, b=5, c=0
5.
(i) According to the questions, the eqiuation of line is
x+y=0..(i)
The line passes through a point whose y-coordinate is -19.5
y=-19.5
Put the value of y in equation (i), we get
x-19.5=0
x=19.5
So the required coordinates are (19.5-19.5)
(ii) According to the question, the equation of line is
x=y...(ii)
The line passes through a point whose x-coordinate is 20.5
x=20.5
Put this value of x in (i), we get
y=20.5
So the required coordinates are(20.5,20.5)
(iii) The coordinates of all the points lying on a line satisfy the equation of the line.
(iv) Obedience and respect for elders or parents.
6.
3x-5y-15=0
Substituting y=0 in the equation
3x-0-15=0
x=5
Hence the point on x-axis is (5,0)
When x=0 in the equation, we get
(3X0)-5y-15=0
y=-3
Point on y-axis is (0,-3), we get the triangle AOB.

Since OA=5 units and AB=3 units
Area of triangle AOB
\(=\frac{1}{2}\times OA\times OB\)
\(=\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times 3=7.5\) sq.unit.
7.

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.
Let the present ages of father and son be x years and y year respectively.
Then, Age of father 5 years ago =(x-5)years
Age of his son 5 years ago(y-5) years
According to the question,
x-5=7(y-5)+2
x-y=7y-35+2
x-7y+28=0
which is the required linear equation in two variables.
10.
Substituting x=-1 and y=-1 in 9kx+12ky=63, we get
\(\Rightarrow\) 9k(-1)+12k(-1)=63
\(\Rightarrow\) -9k-12k=63
\(\Rightarrow\) -21k=63 k=-3
