Find the equation of straight line whose intercepts on the axes are thrice as
long as those made by 2x +11y = 6
2x + 11y = 6
2x + 11y =1
6 6
X + y = 1
6/2 6/11
X + y = 1
3 6/11
X intercept = 3 y intercept=6/11
Required line’s equation is:
X intercept = 9 y intercept =18/11
X + y = 1 (intercept form)
9 18/11
Solving
2x + 11y =18
