If x and y are ______ then the linear equation 4x+8y = 12 has unique solution.

A) Negative Integers
B) Natural Numbers
C) Real Numbers
D) Rational Numbers

Explain in detail

1 answer

clearly, (1,1) is a solution
To make it the only one, B needs to be the answer
Otherwise, the solution set lies on a straight line, with many values.
Plot the line and this is easy to se.
Natural numbers lie only in Quadrant I, and exclude the axes.
