Answer:
The linear equation in two variables is 5u - 8v = 150 .
Explanation:
As given
The cost of 5 tables exceeds the cost of 8 chairs by Rs150 .
Let us assume that the cost of one table be u .
Let us assume that the cost of one chairs be v .
Than the equation becomes
5u + 150 = 8v
Simplify the above equation
5u - 8v = 150
Therefore the linear equation in two variables is 5u - 8v = 150 .
