Question

Write two solutions for the following equation :

`2/3 x - y = 4`

Answer 1

Given that 

`2/3 x - y = 4`

Substituting y = 0 in this equation we get

`2/3 x - 0 = 4`

⇒ `x = 4 xx 3/2`

⇒ `x = 6 `

So, (6, 0) is a solution of the given equation

Substituting y = 1 in the given equation, we get

`2/3 xx -1 =4`

`2 /3 x = 5 ⇒ x = 15/2`

So . `( 15 / 2 .1)` is a solution of the given equation.

∴ We obtain ( 6.0 ) and `(15 /2 .1)` as solutions of the given equation.
