Question

equation of a line passes through the point of intersection of 2x+y=5 and z+3y+8=0 and parallel to the line 3x+4y=7 is?

Open in App
Solution

Point of intersection of lines y=5-2x and y=(8-x)/3 [There is a typing mistake, x should be there in place of z ]

Equating the two lines, we get

5-2x=(8-x)/3

15-6x=8-x

5x=7

x=7/2

So, y = 5-(2×7)/2=-2

Point of intersection (7/2,-2)

Equation of line parallel to 3x+4y-7=0 is

3x+4y-k=0

It should pass through Point of intersection (7/2,-2)
