Cost of book (x) exceeds twice the cost of pen (y) by Rs 10. This
statement can be expressed as linear equation.
(a) x – 2y – 10 = 0 (b) 2x – y – 10 = 0
(c) 2x + y – 10 = 0 (d) x – 2y + 10 = 0
PLEASE HELP ASAP

The relationship between the cost of books and pens is an illustration of linear equation.

The linear equation is (a) [tex]x - 2y - 10 =0[/tex]

From the question, we have:

x exceeds 2 times y by 10

Rewrite as:

x exceeds 2y by 10

Exceed means plus (+)

So, we have:

[tex]x = 2y + 10[/tex]

Equate the above equation to 0

[tex]x - 2y - 10 =0[/tex]

Hence, the required equation is (a) [tex]x - 2y - 10 =0[/tex]
