Solution

The correct option is B
$x + 3 y = 16$

In the equation $x + 3 y = 16$ if we substitute
$x = 7 a n d y = 3$ we get

$L H S = (7) + 3 (3)$

$\Rightarrow L H S = 7 + 9 = 16$

$\Rightarrow L H S = R H S$

$\Rightarrow$ The point (7,0) satisfies the equation $x + 3 y = 16$ .

Hence, the point (7,0) lies on the line $x + 3 y = 16$ .
