A) \[2x+3y=9\]
B) \[2x-3y=7\]
C) \[3x+2y=5\]
D) \[3x-2y=3\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Let\[(x,\text{ }y)\]be the co-ordinates of vertex C and \[({{x}_{1}},{{y}_{1}})\]be the co-ordinates of centroid of the triangle. \[\therefore \] \[{{x}_{1}}=\frac{x+2-2}{3}\] \[{{y}_{1}}=\frac{y-3+1}{3}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{x}_{1}}=\frac{x}{3}\]and \[{{y}_{1}}=\frac{y-2}{3}\] Since the centroid lies on the line\[2x+3y=1\]. So,\[{{x}_{1}}\]and\[{{y}_{1}}\]satisfied the equation of line. \[\therefore \] \[2{{x}_{1}}+3{{y}_{1}}=1\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{2x}{3}+\frac{3(y-2)}{3}=1\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[2x+3y-6=3\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[2x+3y=9\] This equation is locus of the vertex C.
