    • 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} } \orange\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’.

  1. Answer:

    let cost of notes be y

    let cost a pen be x

    cost of note= 2x=y

    x=y/2

    2(y/2)=y

    2y/4=y

    pls mark as BRAINLIEST I will follow and thank you
