Q3 of 16 Page 74

If the point (3, 4) lies on the graph of the equation 3y = ax + 7, find the value of a

The point (3, 4) lies on the graph of the equation

Therefore,


Put x = 3 and y = 4 in the equation,


3y = ax + 7,


Hence,


3 * 4 = a * 3 + 7


12 = 3a + 7


3a = 12 – 7


3a = 5


a = 5/3

From the choices given below, choose the equation whose graphs are given in Figure 4.6 and Figure 4.7

For Fig 4.6 For Fig 4.7


(i) y = x (i) y = x + 2


(ii) x + y = 0 (ii) y = x - 2


(iii) y = 2x (iii) y = -x + 2


(iv) 2 + 3y = 7x (iv) x + 2y = 6
