Question

find the equation of line of x- intercept being -3 and passing through a point (3,4)​

Answer 1

Answer:

equation of line is (-3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercept= -3

x= a and y= b

using two intercept form

x/a+y/b =1

x/-3 +y/b=1

taking L.C.M

bx-3b/-3b=1

bx-3b= -3b _____eq 1

since the line is passing through points (3,4)

put x = 3 and y = 4 in eq 1

b(3)-3(4)= -3b

3b-12=-3b

3b-12+3b=0

6b-12=0

6b=12

b=12/6

b=2
