Q4 of 58 Page 44

Let us express the following statements into linear equations in two variable and draw the graph of the equations.

Of the two numbers, 5 times of larger number equals to 8 times of the smaller one.

Let Numbers are x and y.


Given 5 times larger number is equal to 8 times smaller number.


5y = 8x


Putting different values of x, we get different values of ‘y’, hence we get points for plotting as:
