KeerthanaPosted on What is the equation of line, which makes intercepts –5 and 2 on the x and y-axis respectively a2x – 5y = 10 b–2x + 5y = –10 c2x – 5y = –10 d5x – 2y = 10 Answer : Option CExplanation : Here, a = –5, b = 2 ∴ Equation of line will be xa+yb=1\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}=1ax+by=1 ⇒x−5+y2=1\Rightarrow \frac{x}{-5}+\frac{y}{2}=1⇒−5x+2y=1 ⇒2x−5y=−10\Rightarrow 2 x-5 y=-10⇒2x−5y=−10 Rate This:NaN / 5 - 1 votesAdd comment
