Question 14 Marks
The force exerted to pull a cart is directly proportional to the acceleration produced in the body. Express the statement as a linear equation of two variables and draw the graph of the same by taking the constant mass equal to $6 \ kg$. Read from the graph, the force required when the acceleration produced is:
  1. $5ms^{-2}$
  2. $6ms^{-2}$
Answer
Given that, the force $(F)$ is directly proportional to the the acceleration $(a) i.e. \text{F}\propto\text{a}$
$\Rightarrow\text{F}=\text{ma} [$where $m =$ arbitary constant and take value $6\ kg$ of mass$]$ $\therefore\text{F}=6\text{a}$
  1. If $\text{a}=5\frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}}^2$ then from $Eq\  (i),$ we get
$F = 6 \times 5 = 30N$
  1. If $\text{a}=6\frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}}^2$ then from $Eq\  (i),$ we get
$F = 6 \times 6 = 36N$
Here, we find two points $A(5, 30)$ and $B(6, 36).$
So draw the graph by plotting the point and joining the line $AB.$

Question 24 Marks
Draw the graph of the linear equation whose solutions are represented by the points having the sum of the coordinates as 10 units.
Answer
As per question, the sum of the coordinates is 10 units.
Let x and y be two coordinates, then we get x + y = 10.

For x = 5, y = 5, therefore, (5, 5) lies on the graph of x + y = 10.
For x = 3, y = 7, therefore, (3, 7) lies on the graph of x + y = 10.
Now, plotting the points (5, 5) and (3, 7) on the graph paper and joining them by a line, we get graph of the linear equation x + y = 10.

Question 34 Marks
Write the linear equation such that each point on its graph has an ordinate 3 times its abscissa.
Answer
Let the abscissa of the point be x,
According to the question, Ordinate (y) = 3 x Abscissa ⇒ y= 3x When x = 1, then y = 3 × 1 = 3 and when x = 2, then y = 3 × 2 = 6.
x

2
y

6
Here, we find two points A(1, 3) and B(2, 6).
So, draw the graph by plotting the points and joining the line AB.

Hence, y = 3x is the required equation such that each point on its graph has an ordinate 3 times its abscissa.
