Linear Equations In One Variable Exercise 8.1 Solution 

Question no – (1) 

Solution : 

According to the given question –

(i) x = 4 is the root of 3x – 5 = 7

∴ 3x – 5 = 7

= 3x = 7 + 5

= x = 12/3

∴ x = 4…(Verified)

(ii) x = 3 is the root of 5 + 3x = 14

∴ 5 + 3x = 14

= 3x = 14 – 5

= x = 9/3

∴ x = 3…(Verified)

(iii) x = 2 is the root of 3x – 2 = 8x – 12

∴ 3x – 2 = 8x – 12

= 3x – 8x = – 12 + 2

= x = 10/5

∴ x = 2…(Verified)

(iv) x = 4 is the root of 3x/2 = 6

∴ 3x/2 = 6

= x = 6 × 3/3

= x = 12/3

∴ x = 4…(Verified)

(v) y – 2 is the root of y – 3 = 2y – 5

∴ y – 3 = 2y – 5

= 2y – y = – 3 + 5

∴ y = 3…(Verified)

(vi) x = 8 is the root of 1/2x + 7 = 11

∴ 1/2x + 7 = 11

= 1/2x = 11- 7

= x = 4 × 2

∴ x = 8

Question no – (2) 

Solution :  

As per the question we can solve these problems as follows :

(i) x + 3 = 12

= x = 12 – 3

x = 9

(ii) x – 7 = 10

= x = 10 + 7

x = 17

(iii) 4x = 28

= x = 28/4

x = 7

(iv) x/2 + 7= 11

= x/2 + 7 = 11

= x/2 = 11 – 7

x = 8

(v) 2x + 4 = 3x

= 2x – 3x = – 4

x = 4

(vi) x/4 = 12

= x = 12 × 4

x = 48

(vii) 15/x = 3

= x = 15/3

x = 5

(viii) x/18 = 20

= x = 20 × 18

x = 360

Thus, x = 2/3

Question no – (12) 

Solution :

In the question we have,

0.6x + 4/5 = 0.28x + 1.16

0.6x + 4/5 = 0.28x + 1.16

= 0.6x – 0.28x = 1.16 – 4/5

= 0.32x = 5.8 – 4/5

= x = 10.8/5 × 0.32

Solution :  

Let, Three numbers be x, x + 1, x + 2

x + x + 1 = x + 2 + 15

= 2x – x = 17 – 1

= x = 16

Three numbers are,

x = 16,

16 + 1 = 17

16 + 2 = 18

Therefore, the three consecutive natural numbers are 16, 17, 18.

Question no – (4) 

Solution :  

Let, two numbers be x and y,

x – y = 7

x – y = 7 = x = y + 7

and = 6y + x = 77

= 7y = 77 – 7

= 7y = 70

y = 10

Required number be 10 and 10 + 7 = 17

Question no – (5) 

Solution : 

Let, the number x

x/3 + 5 = 2x

= x + 15/3 = 2x

= 6x = x + 15

= 6x – x = 15

= 5x = 15

= x = 15/5

= x = 3

Therefore, the number will be 3.

Question no – (6) 

Solution : 

Let, the number be = x

3x + 5 = 50

= 3x = 50 – 5

= x = 45/3

= x = 15

Thus, the number will be 15.

Question no – (7) 

Solution : 

Let, Shikha age = x

and Ravish age = x + 3

x + x + 3 = 37

= 2x = 37 – 3

= x = 34/2

x = 17

So, Shikha age will be 17 year

And, Ravish’ s age will be = 17 + 3 = 20 years.

Question no – (8) 

Solution : 

Let, Nilu’s age = x

Jain’s age = x + 27

After 8 years Nilu’s age = x + 8

and Jain’s age,

= x + 27 + 8

= x + 35

x + 35 = 2 (x + 8)

= x + 35 = 2x + 16

= x – 2x = 16 – 35

= – x = – 19

x = 19

Nilu’s age will be 19 years,

And, Nilu’s Jain’s age will be,

= 19 + 27

= 46

Question no – (9) 

Solution : 

According to the question,

Son’s age = x

Man’s age = 4x

16 years after,

Man’s age = 4x + 16

Son’s age = x + 16

2 (x + 16) = 4x + 16

= 2x + 32 = 4x + 16

= 2x – 4x = + 16 – 32

= – 2x = – 16

x = 8

Therefore, Son’s age will be = 8 years

And, Man’s age = 4 × 8 = 32 years.

Question no – (10) 

Solution : 

According to the question,

Girl age = x

Sister age = x – 4

Brother age,

= (x – 4) – 4

= x – 8

x – 4 + x – 8 = 16

= 22x – 12 = 16

= 2x = 16 + 12

= x = 28/2 = 14

Girl age = 14 years

Sister age,

= 14 – 4

= 10 years

Brother age,

= 14 – 8

= 6 years

Question no – (11) 

Solution : 

Let, Anita find = x

Shella find = 2x

2x + x – 5 = 16

= 3x = 16 + 5

= x = 21/3 = 7

So, Anita find 7 shells

Sandy find,

= 7 – 5

= 2 shells

Shella find,

= 2 × 7

= 14 shells

Therefore, Anita find 7 shells, Sandy find 2 shells, and Shella find 14 shells.

Question no – (12) 

Solution : 

Let, Pandy has x marbles,

Andy has = 2x marbles

Sandy has = 2x + x/2 marbles

2x = 2x + x/2

= 2x – 3x/2 = + 75

= 4x – 3x/2 = 75

= x = 150

Pandy has = 150 marbles

Andy has,

= 150 × 2

= 300 marbles

Sandy has,

= 450/2

= 225 marbles.

Hence, Pandy has 150 marbles, Andy has 300 marbles and Sandy has 225 marbles.

Question no – (13) 

Solution : 

Let, 50 paise coins x

and 25 paise coin = 4x

We know, 50 paise = 0.5 Rupee

₹30 = 30 × 100 = 3000 paise

∴ 50x + 4x × 25 = 3000

= 50x + 100x = 3000

= x = 20

50 paise coin = 20

25 paise coin,

= 4 × 20

= 80

Question no – (14) 

Solution : 

Let, Breadth = x

Length = 2x

∴ 2 (x + 2x) = 228

= 6x = 228

= x = 228/6

= x = 38

Breadth = 38

Length = 2 × 38 = 76

Therefore, the dimension of the field will be length 76 meter and breadth 38 metre.

Question no – (15) 

Solution : 

Let, 25 coins = x

₹ 17,50 = 1750 × 100

= 1750 paise

∴ x × 25 = 1750

= x = 70

Therefore, the number of coins in the purse is 70.

Question no – (16) 

Solution : 

Let, the number of students = x

50 kg = 50 × 1000 gm

= 400 × x = 50000

= 4x = 500

= x = 125

Therefore, there are 125 students in the hostel mess.
