u mean lines or line
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Options:
(1) y = 1/ 2 x and y = x ( 2) y = x and y = − x (3) y = 3/ 2 x and y = 6x (4) none of these
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think 4

the required equation is between the points (0,0) and (2,6)
\[y-0=\frac{ 6-0 }{ 2-0 } (x-0)\] giving you y=3x you are done ;)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lol wat is (2,6)
OpenStudy (ghazi):
2,6 is the intersection of line 3x+y=12 between the axes|dw:1351355378723:dw|
OpenStudy (ghazi):
clear? lol

nope..)
OpenStudy (ghazi):
@Yahoo! put x=0 and y=0 in the line 3x+y=12 to get those points
OpenStudy (ghazi):
i mean find the intercepts of the line dude
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3x+y=12
x-inter = 4
y-inter = 12
i got this...)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but did nt get (2,6)

yes and then do your x intercept is (4,0) and y is (0,6) are you kidding me.....man (2,6) is the point of intersection of the line 3x+y=12 THE MID POINT ...are you @Yahoo! lol
OpenStudy (ghazi):
i mean you get your intercept
OpenStudy (ghazi):
\[x=\frac{ 4+0 }{ 2 }=2 and y=\frac{ 12+0 }{ 2 }=6\] i chose mid point because your question says the point of intersection of line and that is the mid point
OpenStudy (ghazi):
@Yahoo! clear?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yup..Got it..) thxx..
