Answer
Given, (2x - 3y, 8) = (2, x + 2y)
Thus,
2x - 3y = 2 ……..(1)
x + 2y = 8 ……..(2)
So, reason (R) is true.
Multiplying equation (2) by 2, we get :
⇒ 2(x + 2y) = 2 × 8
⇒ 2x + 4y = 16 ……..(3)
Subtracting equation (1) from (3), we get :
⇒ 2x + 4y - (2x - 3y) = 16 - 2
⇒ 2x - 2x + 4y + 3y = 14
⇒ 7y = 14
⇒ y = = 2.
Substituting the value y = 2 in first equation,
⇒ 2x - 3 x 2 = 2
⇒ 2x - 6 = 2
⇒ 2x = 2 + 6
⇒ 2x = 8
⇒ x = = 4.
Hence, the value of x = 4 and y = 2.
∴ A is false, but R is true.
Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
