An auto charges a fixed Rs 20 plus Rs 12 for every kilometre travelled. If a ride of km costs Rs , the equation is:

Class 9Linear Equations in Two VariablesLinear Equations
  • A
  • B
  • C
  • D

Step-by-Step Solution

The per-km rate multiplies the distance and the fixed charge is added once: . Check a 3 km ride: Rs 56.
Answer: D)

Key idea: Graphing a linear equation

Three steps:

1. Find at least **two solutions** (preferably the and intercepts — easiest to plot).
2. Plot those points on the coordinate plane.
3. Draw a straight line through them.

Every linear equation in two variables graphs as a STRAIGHT LINE. (That's why they're called 'linear'.)

For accuracy: find a third solution and verify it lies on the line — catches arithmetic mistakes.
