Question:

If (2, 0) is a solution of the linear equation 2x + 3y = k then the value of k is
(a) 6
(b) 5
(c) 2
(d) 4

Solution:

Since, (2, 0) is a solution of the linear equation 2x + 3y = k.

Substituting the values x = 2 and y = 0 in the equation 2x + 3y = k, we get

$2(2)+3(0)=k$

$\Rightarrow 4=k$

or, $k=4$

Hence, the correct option is (d).
