Question

Find the equation to the straight line
(1) cutting off intercepts 3 and 2 from the axes.
(ii) Cutting off intercepts-5 and 6 from the axes​

Answer 1

Answer:

(I) 2x+3y-6=0

(ii) 6x-5y+30=0

Step-by-step explanation:

(I). x/a + y/b = 1

here a=3 and b=2

x/3 + y/2 = 1

2x + 3y = 6

2x + 3y - 6 = 0

(ii). similar to the above answer

here a = -5 and b= 6

the answer becomes

6x - 5y + 30 = 0
