-4

0

2

4

give the answer, if something else given, it'll be reported

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

point (a,1) lies on the given equation therefore it will satisfy the equation.

Putting x= a and y=1 in equation 2x-3y-5=0

2a-3(1)-5=0

2a - 3 - 5 = 0

2a - 8 = 0

2a = 8

a=8/2

a= 4

Answer 2

Answer:

a = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Substituting the given values, we get

2x - 3y - 5 = 0

2(4) - 3(1) = 5

8 -3 = 5

5 = 5
