Question 7.
Population of a city in the years 2005 and 2010 are 1,35,000 and 1,45,000 respectively. Find the approximate population in the year 2015. (assuming that the growth of population is constant).
Solution:
Taking year as x and population as y
We are given when x = 2005,
y = 1,35,000 and
when x = 2010,
y = 1,45,000

y – 135000 = 2000 (x – 2005)
y = 2000(x – 2005) + 135000
At x = 2015, y = 2000 (2015 – 2005) + 135000
(i.e) y = 2000 (10) + 135000 = 20000 + 135000 = 1,55,000
The approximate population in the year 2015 is 1,55,000

8 (1 – a) + 3a = a (1 – a)
8 – 8a + 3a = a – a2

Question 12.
A 150m long train is moving with constant velocity of 12.5 m/s. Find
(i) The equation of the motion of the train,
(ii) Time taken to cross a pole,
(iii) The time taken to cross the bridge of length 850 m is?
Solution:
(i) Now m = $$\frac{y}{x}$$ = 12.5m / second,
The equation of the line is y = mx + c ….(1)
Put c = -150, m = 12.5 m,
The equation of motion of the train is y = 12.5x – 150

(ii) To find the time taken to cross a pole we take y = 0 in (1)
⇒ 0 = 12.5x – 150 ⇒ 12.5x = 150

(iii) When y = 850 in (1)
850 = 12.5 x – 150 ⇒ 12.5x = 850 + 150 = 1000

Question 13.
A spring was hung from a hook in the ceiling. A number of different weights were attached to the spring to make it stretch, and the total length of the spring was measured each time shown in the following table.

(i) Draw a graph showing the results.
(ii) Find the equation relating the length of the spring to the weight on it.
(iii) What is the actual length of the spring.
(iv) If the spring has to stretch to 9 cm long, how much weight should be added?
(v) How long will the spring be when 6 kilograms of weight on it?
Solution:
Taking weight (kg) as x values and length (cm) as y values we get (x1, y1) = (2, 3), (x2, y2) = (4, 4)

The equation of the line passing through the above two points is

(iii) When x = 0, 2y = 4 ⇒ y = 2 cm

(iv) When y = 9 cm, x – 18 = – 4
x = -4 + 18 = 14 kg

(v) When x = 6 (kg), 6 – 2y = – 4, -2y = -4 – 6 = -10
⇒ 2y = 10 ⇒ y = 10/2 = 5 cm.

Question 2.
Find the equation of the line which passes through the point (- 4, 3) and the portion of the line intercepted between the axes is divided internally in the ratio 5 : 3 by this point.
Solution:
Let AB be a line passing through a point (-4, 3) and meets x-axis at A (a, 0) and y-axis at B (0, b).

Question 3.
If the intercept of a line between the coordinate axes is divided by the point (-5, 4) in the ratio 1 : 2, then find the equation of the line.
Solution:
Let a and b be the intercepts on the given line.

Hence, the required equation is 8x – 5y + 60 = 0

Question 4.
Find the equation of the straight line which passes through the point (1, -2) and cuts off equal intercepts from axes.
Solution:
Intercept form of a straight line is $$\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}$$ = 1, where a and b are the intercepts on the axis

If equation (1) passes through the point (1, -2) we get

So, equation of the straight line is x v

Hence, the required equation x + y + 1 = 0

Solution:

Question 6.
The line 2x – y = 5 turns about the point on it, whose ordinate and abscissa are equal, through an angle of 45° in the anti-clockwise direction, find the equation of the line in the new position.
Solution:
If the line 2x – y = 5 makes an angle θ with x – axis. Then, tan θ = 2. Let P (α, α) be a point on the line 2x – y = 5.
Then, 2 α – α = 5 ⇒ α = 5

So, the coordinates of P are (5, 5). If the line 2x – y – 5 = 0 is rotated about point
P through 45° in anti clockwise direction, then the line in its new position makes angle θ + 45° with x – axis. Let m’ be the slope of the line in its new position. Then,

Thus, the line in its new pdsition passes through P (5, 5) and has slope m’ = -3
So, its equation y – 5 = m’ (x – 5) or, y – 5 = -3 (x – 5) or, 3x + y – 20 = 0
