Q6(iii):
Given the linear equation 2x + 3y – 8 = 0, write another linear equation in two variables such that the geometrical representation of the pair so formed is: (iii) coincident lines
Solution :
Given: A linear equation in two variables, $2x + 3y - 8 = 0$.
To Find: Another linear equation in two variables, $a_2x + b_2y + c_2 = 0$, such that the pair of linear equations represents coincident lines.
Theoretical Background:
For a pair of linear equations in two variables given by:
$a_1x + b_1y + c_1 = 0$
$a_2x + b_2y + c_2 = 0$
The lines are coincident if and only if the ratios of their coefficients are equal, satisfying the condition:
$\frac{a_1}{a_2} = \frac{b_1}{b_2} = \frac{c_1}{c_2}$
Step 1: Identify the coefficients of the given equation.
The given equation is $2x + 3y - 8 = 0$.
Comparing this with the standard form $a_1x + b_1y + c_1 = 0$, we have:
$a_1 = 2$
$b_1 = 3$
$c_1 = -8$
Step 2: Apply the condition for coincident lines.
To obtain a coincident line, we can multiply the entire equation by a non-zero constant $k$. Let us choose $k = 2$ for simplicity.
The new coefficients will be:
$a_2 = k \cdot a_1 = 2 \cdot 2 = 4$
$b_2 = k \cdot b_1 = 2 \cdot 3 = 6$
$c_2 = k \cdot c_1 = 2 \cdot (-8) = -16$
Step 3: Formulate the new equation.
Substituting the values of $a_2, b_2,$ and $c_2$ into the standard form $a_2x + b_2y + c_2 = 0$:
$4x + 6y - 16 = 0$
Step 4: Verification of the condition.
Check the ratios:
$\frac{a_1}{a_2} = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$
$\frac{b_1}{b_2} = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}$
$\frac{c_1}{c_2} = \frac{-8}{-16} = \frac{1}{2}$
[Since $\frac{a_1}{a_2} = \frac{b_1}{b_2} = \frac{c_1}{c_2}$, the lines are coincident.]
Final Answer: One such linear equation is 4x + 6y - 16 = 0.
