Question

Mohan is 10 years older than his brother Sohan. The linear equation in two variables to represent the above statement by taking age of Mohan to be x years and that of Sohan to be y years will be:
1 point
x + y + 10 = 0
x - y - 10 = 0
x + y - 10 = 0
x - y + 10 = 0

Answer 1

x - y - 10 = 0

hope it works and helps you

Answer 2

Question:

Mohan is 10 years older than his brother Sohan. The linear equation in two variables to represent the above statement by taking age of Mohan to be x years and that of Sohan to be y years will be:

a) x + y + 10 = 0

b) x - y - 10 = 0

c) x + y - 10 = 0

d) x - y + 10 = 0

Answer:

Sohan is (y) years old

So, Mohan must be (10+y) years old

It is given that Mohan is (x) years old

So,

y+10=x

x-y-10=0

OPTION B
