The relationship between the cost of books and pens is an illustration of linear equation.

The linear equation is (a) [tex]x - 2y - 10 =0[/tex]

From the question, we have:

x exceeds 2 times y by 10

Rewrite as:

x exceeds 2y by 10

Exceed means plus (+)

So, we have:

[tex]x = 2y + 10[/tex]

Equate the above equation to 0

[tex]x - 2y - 10 =0[/tex]

Hence, the required equation is (a) [tex]x - 2y - 10 =0[/tex]
