SECTION E — Long Answer Type Questions [5 Marks Each]

  • Q1. Solve the following pair of linear equations graphically: $$2x + y = 8$$ $$x - y = 1$$ Shade the region bounded by these lines and the $x$-axis. Also, determine the coordinates of the vertices of the triangular region formed and calculate its area.
  • Q2. Draw the graphs of the following equations on the same graph sheet: $$3x + 2y = 12$$ $$5x - 2y = 4$$ Determine the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle formed by these two lines and the $y$-axis. Calculate the area of this triangle.
  • Q3. Consider the linear equations: $$x - y + 1 = 0$$ $$3x + 2y - 12 = 0$$ Determine their solutions graphically. Shade the region bounded by these lines and the $x$-axis, and write down the exact coordinates of all three vertices of the resulting triangle.
  • Q4. Solve the following linear system graphically: $$4x - 3y + 4 = 0$$ $$4x + 3y - 20 = 0$$ Find the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle formed by the intersection of these lines with the $x$-axis. Hence or otherwise, compute the total area of the triangle.
  • Q5. Two linear equations are given as: $$x + 3y = 6$$ $$2x - 3y = 12$$ Find the points where these lines intersect both the coordinate axes ($x$-axis and $y$-axis). Draw their graphs and find the area of the quadrilateral (or polygon) enclosed between these lines and the axes.
  • Q6. Places $A$ and $B$ are $100\text{ km}$ apart on a highway. One car starts from $A$ and another from $B$ at the same time. If the cars travel in the same direction at different speeds, they meet in $5$ hours. If they travel towards each other, they meet in $1$ hour. What are the speeds of the two cars?
  • Q7. Roohi travels $300\text{ km}$ to her home partly by train and partly by bus. She takes $4$ hours if she travels $60\text{ km}$ by train and the remaining by bus. If she travels $100\text{ km}$ by train and the remaining by bus, she takes $10$ minutes longer. Find the speed of the train and the bus separately.
  • Q8. A boat goes $30\text{ km}$ upstream and $44\text{ km}$ downstream in $10$ hours. In $13$ hours, it can go $40\text{ km}$ upstream and $55\text{ km}$ downstream. Determine the speed of the stream and that of the boat in still water.
  • Q9. Points $A$ and $B$ are $90\text{ km}$ apart from each other on a highway. A car starts from $A$ and another from $B$ at the same time. If they move in the same direction, they meet in $9$ hours, and if they move in opposite directions, they meet in $\frac{9}{7}$ hours. Find the speeds of the two cars.
  • Q10. A railway half ticket costs half the full fare, but the reservation charge on a half ticket is the same as on a full ticket. One full first-class ticket from station $A$ to $B$ costs ₹$2530$, and one full and one half first-class ticket cost ₹$3810$. Find the basic first-class full fare and the reservation charge per ticket.
  • Q11. 2 women and 5 men can together finish an embroidery work in 4 days, while 3 women and 6 men can finish it in 3 days. Find the time taken by 1 woman alone to finish the work, and the time taken by 1 man alone.
  • Q12. A two-digit number is obtained by either multiplying the sum of the digits by $8$ and adding $1$, or by multiplying the difference of the digits by $13$ and adding $2$. Find the original two-digit number.
  • Q13. Ten years ago, a father was twelve times as old as his son and, ten years hence, he will be twice as old as his son will be. Find their present ages.
  • Q14. The sum of the numerator and denominator of a fraction is $4$ more than twice the numerator. If $3$ is added to both the numerator and the denominator, the ratio of the new numerator to the new denominator becomes $2:3$. Find the original fraction.
  • Q15. The monthly incomes of two persons $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio $9:7$ and their monthly expenditures are in the ratio $4:3$. If each of them manages to save ₹$2000$ per month, find their actual monthly incomes.
  • Q16. The angles of a cyclic quadrilateral $ABCD$ are given by: $$\angle A = (2x + 4)^\circ$$ $$\angle B = (y + 3)^\circ$$ $$\angle C = (2y + 10)^\circ$$ $$\angle D = (4x - 5)^\circ$$ Find the values of $x$ and $y$, and hence determine the exact numerical value of all four angles of the cyclic quadrilateral.
  • Q17. In $\triangle ABC$, $\angle C = 3\angle B = 2(\angle A + \angle B)$. Find the three interior angles ($\angle A$, $\angle B$, and $\angle C$) of the triangle by setting up a system of linear equations.
  • Q18. Solve the following pair of equations by reducing them to a pair of linear equations: $$\frac{5}{x - 1} + \frac{1}{y - 2} = 2$$ $$\frac{6}{x - 1} - \frac{3}{y - 2} = 1$$
  • Q19. Solve the following system of equations for $x$ and $y$: $$\frac{1}{2(2x + 3y)} + \frac{12}{7(3x - 2y)} = \frac{1}{2}$$ $$\frac{7}{(2x + 3y)} + \frac{4}{(3x - 2y)} = 2$$
  • Q20. Half the perimeter of a rectangular garden, whose length is $4\text{ m}$ more than its width, is $36\text{ m}$. Find the dimensions of the garden, and calculate the cost of fencing it entirely at the rate of ₹$50$ per meter.
