The number of pairs ( x, y ) satisfying the equations
and 
is
A
2
B
4
C
6
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
The first equation can be written as,
Either 
or 
or 
⇒ ⇒ 
. As | x | + | y | =1, therefore when 
we have to reject 
or 
and solve it with 
or 
which gives 
or
as the possible solution. Again solving with 
we get 
and solving with 
we get 
as the other solution. Thus we have six pairs of solution for x and y.
