Gopaiah sowed wheat and paddy in two fields of total area 5000 square meters. Write a linear equation and draw a graph to represent the same?

Given that total area = 5000 sq. m.

Let the area of field with wheat = x sq. m and area of field with paddy = y sq.m


∴ the linear equation will be-


⇒ x + y = 5000


For graph, we’ll first make the table of solutions by putting some random values of x and thereafter we’ll find corresponding values of y and then we’ll plot these points on graph, join them and extend them in straight line to find the graph.


(Note: ∵ equation is linear graph will always be straight line.)


Table of solutions for the given equation-
