Question 14
The graph of the linear equation 2x + 3y = 6 is a line which meets the X-axis at the point:

A) (0, 2)
B) (2, 0)
C) (3, 0)
D) (0, 3)

Answer 1

(C)

Since the graph of linear equation 2x + 3y = 6 meets the x-axis;
Put y = 0 in 2x + 3y = 6(at x axis the value of y coordinate is 0)
$\Rightarrow$ 2x + 3(0) = 6
$\Rightarrow$ 2x + 0 = 6
$\Rightarrow x=\frac{6}{2}\Rightarrow x=3$
Hence, the required point is (3, 0).
