Question

the graph of the linear equation 24 x + 7y = 168 cuts the x axis and y axis at A and B respectively, then length of AB is equal to ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 24

simillarly if we put y = 0 , we get the point of intersection of the line and the x axis..

thus, 24x = 168

x = 7

in right triangle AOB,

AB^2 = AO^2 + BO^2

= 24*24 + 7*7

= 576 + 49

=625

thus AB = 25

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

24 x+ 7y = 168

If we put x= 0 then

y = 24

If we put y = 0 then

x = 7

A = 7

B = 24 so

AB² = A0² + 0B²

AB² = 7² +24²

AB² = 625

AB = 25
