Given ,
The equation of straight line passing through the point of intersection of the lines 3x + 4y - 11 = 0 and 2x - 3y + 4 = 0 and parallel to the line 2x + 3y = 5
Let ,
3x + 4y = 11 --- (i)
2x - 3y = -4 --- (ii)
Multiply eq (i) by 2 and eq (ii) by 3 , we get
6x + 8y = 22 --- (iii)
6x - 9y = -12 --- (iv)
Subtract eq (iv) from eq (iii) , we get
6x + 8y - (6x - 9y) = 22 - (-12)
8y + 9y = 34
17y = 34
y = 34/17
y = 2
Put y = 2 in eq (i) , we get
3x + 4(2) = 113x + 8 = 113x = 3x = 3/3x = 1
Therefore , the point of intersection of the lines 3x + 4y - 11 = 0 and 2x - 3y + 4 = 0 is (1 , 2)
We know that , the slope of the line passing passing through (x, y) and (xo , yo) is
Thus ,
Slope (m) = (2 - y)/(1 - x)
Now , Slope of 2x + 3y - 5 = 0 will be
Slope (m) = -A/B = -2/3
We know that , if two lines are parrallel to each other, then
Thus ,
-2/3 = (2 - y)/(1 - x)
-2 + 2x = 6 - 3y
2x - 3y - 8 = 0
Therefore , the required equation of the line is 2x - 3y - 8 = 0
