Find the solution of the linear equation x + 2y = 8 which represent a point on

(i) X-axis (ii) Y-axis

Given: x + 2y = 8

(i) Equation of x-axis: y = 0

Putting y = 0 in equation x + 2y = 8

We have x + 2 (0) = 8

Or, x = 8.

Thus, the required point is (8, 0).

(ii.) Equation of y-axis: x = 0

Putting x = 0 in equation x + 2y = 8

We have 0 + 2y = 8;

Or, y = = 4.

Or, y = 4.

Thus, the required point is (0, 4).
