Maharashtra State Board 11th Commerce Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Linear Inequations Ex 8.2
(ii) y ≥ 3
Solution:
Given, inequation is y ≥ 3
∴ corresponding equation is y = 3
It is a line parallel to X-axis passing through point A(0, 3)
Origin test:
Substituting y = 0 in inequation, we get
0 ≥ 3 which is false.
∴ Points on the origin side of the line do not satisfy the inequation
∴ Points on the non-origin side of the line satisfy the inequation.
∴ all the points on the line and above it satisfy the given inequation.

(iii) y ≤ -2x
Solution:
Given, inequation is y ≤ -2x
∴ corresponding equation is y = -2x
It is a line passing through origin O(0, 0).
To draw the line, we need one more point.
To find another point on the line, we can take any value of x,
say, x = 2.
∴ substituting x = 2 in y = -2x, we get
y = -2(2)
∴ y = -4
∴ another point on the line is A(2, -4)
Now, the origin test is not possible as the origin lies on the line y = -2x
So, choose a point which does not lie on the line say, (2, 1)
∴ substituting x = 2, y = 1 in inequation, we get
1 ≤ -2(2)
∴ 1 ≤ -4 which is false.
∴ the points on the side of the line y = -2x, where (2, 1) lies do not satisfy the inequation.
∴ all the points on the line y = -2x and on the opposite side of the line where (2, 1) lies, satisfy the inequation
The shaded portion represents the solution set.
(iv) y – 5x ≥ 0
Solution:
Given, inequation is y – 5x ≥ 0
∴ corresponding equation is y – 5x = 0
It is a line passing through the point O(0, 0)
To draw the line, we need one more point.
To find another point on the line,
we can take any value of x, say, x = 1.
Substituting x = 1 in y – 5x = 0, we get
y – 5(1) = 0
∴ y = 5
∴ Another point on the line is A(1, 5)
Now origin test is not possible as the origin lies on the line y = 5x
∴ choose a point that does not lie on the line, say (3, 2).
∴ substituting x = 3, y = 2 in inequation, we get
2 – 5(3) ≥ 0
∴ 2 – 10 ≥ 0
∴ -8 ≥ 0 which is false.
∴ the points on the side of line y = 5x where (3, 1) lies do not satisfy the inequation.
∴ the points on the line y = 5x and on the opposite of the line where (3, 2) lies, satisfy the inequation.
The shaded portion represents the solution set.
(v) x – y ≥ 0
Solution:
Given, inequation is x – y ≥ 0
∴ Corresponding equation is x – y = 0
It is a line passing through origin O(0, 0)
To draw the line we need one more point.
To find another point on the line, we can take any value of x,
Say, x = 2.
∴ substituting x = 2 in x – y = 0, we get
2 – y = 0
∴ y = 2
∴ another point on the line is A(2, 2)
Now origin test is not possible as the origin lies on the line y = x
∴ choose a point which not lie on the line say (3, 1)
∴ substituting x = 3, y = 1 in inequation, we get
3 – 1 ≥ 0
∴ 2 ≥ 0 which is true.
∴ all the points on line x – y = 0 and the points on the side where (3, 1) lies satisfy the inequation
The shaded portion represents the solution set.
(vi) 2x – y ≤ -2
Solution:
Given, inequation is 2x – y ≤ -2
∴ corresponding equation is 2x – y = -2
∴
∴
∴ intersection of line with X-axis is A(-1, 0),
intersection of line with Y-axis is B(0, 2)
Origin test:
Substituting x = 0, y = 0 in the given inequation, we get
2(0) – (0) ≤ -2
∴ 0 ≤ -2
which is false.
∴ Points on the origin side of the line do not satisfy the inequation.
∴ Points on the non-origin side of the line satisfy the inequation
∴ all the points on the line and above it satisfy the given inequation.
The shaded portion represents the solution set.
(vii) 4x + 5y ≤ 40
Solution:
Given, inequation is 4x + 5y ≤ 40
∴ Corresponding equation is 4x + 5y = 40
∴
∴
∴ Intersection of line with X-axis is A(10, 0)
Intersection of line with Y-axis is B(0, 8)
Origin test:
Substituting x = 0, y = 0 in the inequation, we get
4(0) + 5(0) ≤ 40
∴ 0 ≤ 40 which is true.
∴ all the points on the origin side of the line and points on the line satisfy the given inequation.
The shaded portion represents the solution set.
(viii) ≤ 1
Solution:
Given, inequation is ≤ 1
∴ corresponding equation is = 1
∴ intersection of line with X-axis is A(4, 0),
intersection of line with Y-axis is B(0, 2)
Origin test:
Substituting x = 0, y = 0 in the given inequation, we get
≤ 1
∴ 0 ≤ 1 which is true.
∴ all the points on the origin side of the line and points on the line satisfy the given inequation.
The shaded portion represents the solution set.
