Question

For the pair of linear equations given below, draw graphs and then state, whether the lines drawn are

$3x+4y=24$
$\frac{x}{4}+\frac{y}{3}=1$

• A. intersecting but not at right anglesl
• B. Options B & D
• C. perpendicular
• D. parallel

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

parallel

we have drawn the graph of the lines,

$3x+4y=24$---(i) and $\frac{x}{4}+\frac{y}{3}=1$---(ii)

Here equation (i) is represented the red line and equation (ii) is represented by the blue line.

hence from the graph above we can see that the lines are parallel to each other.

Option $\text{D}$ is correct.
