variables such that the geometrical representation of the pair so formed is:
(i) intersecting lines (ii) parallel lines (iii) coincident lines
8. For what values of k will the following pair of linear equations have infinitely many

time. Find the distance covered by the train.

first lot at the rate of Rs 2 for 3 bananas and the second lot at the rate of Re 1 per
banana, and got a total of Rs 400. If he had sold the first lot at the rate of Re 1 per
banana, and the second lot at the rate of Rs 4 for 5 bananas, his total collection
would have been Rs 460. Find the total number of bananas he had.

the chair she would have got Rs 1065. Find the cost price of each.
25. Susan invested certain amount of money in two schemes A and B, which offer
interest at the rate of 8% per annum and 9% per annum, respectively. She received
Rs 1860 as annual interest. However, had she interchanged the amount of
