1. • Let the cost of a notebook to be = ₹ x
   • Let the cost of a pen to be = ₹ y

   According to the question,

   The cost of a notebook is twice the cost of a pen.

   i.e., Cost of a notebook = 2×Cost of a pen

   [tex] \: \: \: \: \: \: : \sf \ \implies x = 2×y [/tex]

   [tex] \: \: \: \: \: \: \sf : \implies{x = 2y}[/tex]

   [tex] \: \: \: \: \: \: \ : \implies \boxed {\frak{x – 2y = 0} } \pink\bigstar[/tex]

   Hence,

   • x-2y = 0 is the linear equation in two variables to represent the statement ‘The cost of a notebook is twice the cost of a pen’.
