The required point is (2,3).
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The graph of the linear equation x + y = 5 meet a line which is parallel to the y-axis, at a distance of 2 units from the origin in the positive direction of x-axis ?
To find : At what point does the graph meet a line?
Solution :
The graph of the linear equation .....(1)
The x-intercept is at y=0,
x+0=5
x=5
The y-intercept is at x=0,
0+y=5
y=5
Now, any line parallel to the y axis is in the form x=k.
Since, this line is at a distance of 2 units from the origin in the positive x-axis.
So, The equation of line is ......(2)
Now, The intersection point of both the lines is the required point.
Put equation (2) in (1),
2+y=5
y=3
Therefore, The required point is (2,3).
