Detailed Solution

The given pair of linear equations is 3x+2y=12  and 5x2y=4  .
To solve the equations graphically we have to get the coordinated for each equation.
For the linear equation 3x+2y=12  ,
Putting x=0   in the equation 3x+2y=12   to obtain the value of y  ,
3×0+2y=12 2y=12 y= 12 2 y=6  
Putting x=2 in the equation 3x+2y=12   to obtain the value of y  ,
3× 2 +2y=12 2y=126 y= 6 2 y=3  
Putting x=4   in the equation 3x+2y=12   to obtain the value of y  ,
3× 4 +2y=12 2y=1212 y=0  
So, the coordinates of the line equation 3x+2y=12   are 0,6 , 2,3   and 4,0  .
For the second line equation 5x2y=4  ,
Putting x=0   in the equation 5x2y=4   to obtain the value of y  ,
5 0 2y=4 2y=4 y=2  
Putting x=2 in the equation 5x2y=4   to obtain the value of y  ,
5(2)-2y=4
10-2y=4
6=2y
y=3
Putting x=4   in the equation 5x2y=4   to obtain the value of y  ,
5 4 2y=4 2y=204 y=8  
So, the coordinate of the line equation 5x2y=4   are 0,2 , 0.8,0   and 4,8  .
Plot the graph of the line 3x+2y=12   using the table below:

The graph of the lines is represented as,
Question ImageFrom the graph we can see that the lines 3x+2y=12   and 5x2y=4   are intersecting at the point 2,3   hence, the system of equations have a unique solution.
Hence, the correct option is 1.
