A) \[\frac{x}{2}+\frac{y}{3}=-1\]and\[\frac{x}{-2}+\frac{y}{1}=-1\]
B) \[\frac{x}{2}-\frac{y}{3}=-1\]and\[\frac{x}{-2}+\frac{y}{1}=-1\]
C) \[\frac{x}{2}+\frac{y}{3}=1\]and\[\frac{x}{-2}+\frac{y}{1}=1\]
D) \[\frac{x}{2}-\frac{y}{3}=1\]and\[\frac{x}{-2}+\frac{y}{1}=1\]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Let a and b be intercepts on the co-ordinate axes. \[\therefore \] \[a+b=-1\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[b=-a-1=-(a+1)\] Equation of line is \[\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}=1\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{x}{a}-\frac{y}{a+1}=1\] Since, this line passes through (4, 3). \[\therefore \] \[\frac{4}{a}-\frac{3}{a+1}=1\Rightarrow \frac{4a+4-3a}{a(a+1)}=1\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[a+4={{a}^{2}}+a\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{a}^{2}}=4\Rightarrow a=\pm 2\] \[\therefore \]Equation of line is \[\frac{x}{2}-\frac{y}{3}=1\] or\[\frac{x}{-2}+\frac{y}{1}=1\] [from Eq.(i)]You need to login to perform this action.
