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

 

 

 

 =  1  (intercept form)

9  18/11

 

 

Solving

 

2x + 11y =18

 

  • 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

 

 

 

 =  1  (intercept form)

9  18/11

 

 

Solving

 

2x + 11y =18

 

  • -8
