Find a point on 2x + 3y = 10 which is at a distance of 2 units to the right of the Y axis

Open in App

Solution

Let the required point be (2, a)[as the line is at a distance of 2 units to the right of Y axis]

Since it is on the line, it is a solution of the equation
$2 x + 3 y = 10$

Thus, $2 (2) + (3 \times a) = 10$

$3 a = 6$

$a = 2$

Hence, the required point is (2, 2)
