Given info : the pair of equations x - 2y = 0 and 3x + 4y - 20 = 0
To find : on comparing the ratios of the coefficient, we have to find out whether the pair of equations is consistent or inconsistent.
Solution : here, x - 2y = 0 ......(1)
3x + 4y - 20 = 0 ........(2)
here, a₁ = 1, b₁ = -2 and c = 0
a₂ = 3 , b₂ = 4 and c₂ = -20
a₁/a₂ = 1/3
b₁/b₂ = -2/4 = -1/2
c₁/c₂ = 0/-20
here it is clear that, a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂ so pair of equations has only one solution. Therefore the pair of equations is consistent.
