TOPIC : LINEAR EQUATION IN ONE VARIABLE

1. If 2 x − 3 = 7 − 5x , then x is ______
−4 4 27 10
(a) (b) (c) (d)
3 7 40 7
Ans: (d)
Sol: 2 x − 3 = 7 − 5x
 2 x + 5x = 7 + 3
 7 x = 10
10
 x=

2. If 5x + = x − 14 then the value of x which satisfies the equation is
2 2
(a) 15 (b) -5 (c) -3 (d) None of these
Ans: (b)
Sol: Taking L.C.M. both sides, we get
10 x + 7 3x − 28
=  10 x + 7 = 3x − 28
2 2
10 x − 3x = −28 − 7  7 x = −35
−35
x  x = −5

3. Which of the following is a linear equation?
5 3
(a) 3x 2 + 2 = 0 (b) x +1 = 3 (c) y 2 = (d) None of these
2 2
Ans: (b)
Sol: Option (a) and (c) has variable with highest power not equal to 1. Hence not a linear equation.
Option (b) is correct as highest power of variable x is 1.
4. The value of y which satifies 0.3 y + 0.4 = 0.28 y + 1.16 is
(a) 38 (b) 39 (c) 40 (d) 41
Ans: (a)
Sol: 0.3 y + 0.4 = 0.28 y + 1.16
0.3 y − 0.28 y = 1.16 − 0.40
0.76 76
0.02 y = 0.76  y = = = 38
0.02 2
5. The value of x satisfying 3 ( x + 3) − 2 ( x − 1) = 5 ( x − 5 ) : is

(a) (b) (c) −9 (d) 9
3 4
Ans: (d)
Sol: 3 ( x + 3) − 2 ( x − 1) = 5 ( x − 5 )

 3x + 9 − 2 x + 2 = 5x − 25
 4 x = 36  x = 9
