Question

Draw the graph for the equation given below. Hence find the co-ordinates of the points where the graph drawn meets the co-ordinate axes :

$\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{5}y=1$

• A. $(6,3)$ and $(5,0)$
• B. $(3,5)$ and $(2,0)$
• C. $(3,0)$ and $(0,5)$
• D. $(2,0)$ and $(0,7)$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$(3,0)$ and $(0,5)$

Plotting the equation in the graph,we find that equation intersects the coordinate axis at $(3,0)$ and $(0,5)$
