Q2(iii):
Form the pair of linear equations in the following problems, and find their solutions (if they exist) by the elimination method : (iii) The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 9. Also, nine times this number is twice the number obtained by reversing the order of the digits. Find the number.

Solution :

Given:

1. A two-digit number where the sum of its digits is $9$.

2. Nine times the original number is equal to twice the number obtained by reversing the digits.

To Find:

The original two-digit number.

Step 1: Defining the Variables

Let the digit at the tens place be $x$ and the digit at the units place be $y$.

Since it is a two-digit number, the value of the number can be expressed as:

Original Number $= 10x + y$

When the digits are reversed, the new tens digit becomes $y$ and the new units digit becomes $x$.

Reversed Number $= 10y + x$

Step 2: Formulating the Equations

According to the first condition, the sum of the digits is $9$:

$x + y = 9$ --- (Equation 1)

According to the second condition, nine times the original number is twice the reversed number:

$9(10x + y) = 2(10y + x)$

$90x + 9y = 20y + 2x$

$90x - 2x + 9y - 20y = 0$

$88x - 11y = 0$

Dividing the entire equation by $11$ to simplify:

$8x - y = 0$ --- (Equation 2)

Step 3: Solving by the Elimination Method

We have the system of equations:

(1) $x + y = 9$

(2) $8x - y = 0$

To eliminate $y$, we add Equation 1 and Equation 2:

$(x + y) + (8x - y) = 9 + 0$

$x + 8x + y - y = 9$

$9x = 9$

$x = \frac{9}{9}$

$x = 1$

Step 4: Finding the value of $y$

Substitute $x = 1$ into Equation 1:

$1 + y = 9$

$y = 9 - 1$

$y = 8$

Step 5: Determining the Number

The tens digit $x = 1$ and the units digit $y = 8$.

Original Number $= 10x + y = 10(1) + 8 = 18$.

Verification:

Sum of digits: $1 + 8 = 9$ (Satisfied).

Nine times the number: $9 \times 18 = 162$.

Twice the reversed number: $2 \times 81 = 162$.

Since $162 = 162$, the solution is correct.

Final Answer: The two-digit number is 18.

I started my teaching career in 2005 in that year itself I got a chance to take class in 10 for one month for leave vacancy. After that I got the chance in 2011 in another school, then it continued. Taking class in 10 it was a challenge because responsibilities are more. Both parents and students are in stress, at the same time the school management also. If the results are not satisfactory it will affect to the reputation of the school. So the teachers are alert always .All the students have to face the board. So the preparation of each and every child is important. For that conducting special classes ,morning classes. Conducting evaluations in proper interval. After every evaluation a session with parents in school is very important. Because they are more stressed than students. The year tenth is important because it is the turning point of each student . The effort of all the pupils will be fruitful when we get the good result. Teachers especially those who are taking in class 10 they are not bothered about the salary which the management as paying to them, of course it is a pain to their personal life. Once if we are standing in front of the students our main attention was that whether the concept will be reaching to the pupil in the right meaning and sense. In that time we are not bothered about the payment. If the student got the concept and scored good in exam that was the great reward for teacher. After the schooling that student and parents never forget that teacher in their life every important movements they expect that teachers presence there.
