Write four solutions for each of the following equations:

 (i) 2x+y = 7

Solution:

To find the four solutions of 2x+y =7 we substitute different values for x and y

Let x = 0

Then,

2x+y = 7

(2×0)+y = 7

y = 7

(0,7)

Let x = 1

Then,

2x+y = 7

(2×1)+y = 7

2+y = 7

y = 7-2

y = 5

(1,5)

Let y = 1

Then,

2x+y = 7

(2x)+1 = 7

2x = 7-1

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

(3,1)

Let x = 2

Then,

2x+y = 7

(2×2)+y = 7

4+y = 7

y =7-4

y = 3

(2,3)

The solutions are (0, 7), (1,5), (3,1), (2,3)

(ii) πx+y = 9

Solution:

To find the four solutions of πx+y = 9 we substitute different values for x and y

Let x = 0

Then,

πx+y = 9

(π×0)+y = 9

y = 9

(0,9)

Let x = 1

Then,

πx +y = 9

(π×1)+y = 9

π+y = 9

y = 9-π

(1, 9-π)

Let y = 0

Then,

πx+y = 9

πx+0 = 9

πx = 9

x = 9/π

(9/π,0)

Let x = -1

Then,

πx + y = 9

(π×-1) + y = 9

-π+y = 9

y = 9+π

(-1,9+π)

The solutions are (0,9), (1,9-π), (9/π,0), (-1,9+π)

(iii) x = 4y

Solution:

To find the four solutions of x = 4y we substitute different values for x and y

Let x = 0

Then,

x = 4y

0 = 4y

4y= 0

y = 0/4

y = 0

(0,0)

Let x = 1

Then,

x = 4y

1 = 4y

4y = 1

y = 1/4

(1,1/4)

Let y = 4

Then,

x = 4y

x= 4×4

x = 16

(16,4)

Let y = 1

Then,

x = 4y

x = 4×1

x = 4

(4,1)

The solutions are (0,0), (1,1/4), (16,4), (4,1)
