Key Topics to Revise

1

Linear Equations in Two Variables

  • A linear equation in two variables x and y has the form ax + by + c = 0, where a, b, c are real numbers and at least one of a or b is not zero (a² + b² ≠ 0)
  • The graph of a linear equation in two variables is always a straight line
  • Each point (x, y) on the line represents a solution to the equation
2

Pair of Linear Equations and Their Solutions

  • A pair of linear equations: a₁x + b₁y + c₁ = 0 and a₂x + b₂y + c₂ = 0
  • Solution is a pair of values (x, y) that satisfies both equations simultaneously
  • Three types of solutions: unique solution, infinitely many solutions, no solution
3

Graphical Method

  • Plot both equations as straight lines on the same coordinate system
  • Intersecting lines → unique solution (point of intersection)
  • Parallel lines → no solution (lines never meet)
4

Relationship Between Coefficients and Nature of Solutions

  • Compare ratios a₁/a₂, b₁/b₂, and c₁/c₂
  • If a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂ → unique solution (intersecting lines)
  • If a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ ≠ c₁/c₂ → no solution (parallel lines)
