The cost of 5 pencils is equal to the cost of 2 ballpoints. Write a linear equation in two variables to represent this statement. (Take the cost of a pencil to be Rs. x and that of a ballpoint to be Rs. y).
Let the cost of one pencil be Rs. x and that of one ballpoint be Rs. y.
Then,
Cost of 5 pencils = Rs. 5x
Cost of 2 ballpoints = Rs. 2y
According to given statement, we have
5x = 2y
⇒ 5x - 2y = 0
