The correct Answer is:
To find the straight line passing through the point of intersection of the lines given by the equations \( x + 2y - 10 = 0 \) and \( 2x + y + 5 = 0 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the point of intersection of the two lines. We have the equations: 1. \( x + 2y - 10 = 0 \) (Equation 1) 2. \( 2x + y + 5 = 0 \) (Equation 2) To find the intersection, we can solve these equations simultaneously. ### Step 2: Express one variable in terms of the other. From Equation 1, we can express \( x \) in terms of \( y \): \[ x = 10 - 2y \] ### Step 3: Substitute this expression into the second equation. Now, substitute \( x = 10 - 2y \) into Equation 2: \[ 2(10 - 2y) + y + 5 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ 20 - 4y + y + 5 = 0 \] \[ 25 - 3y = 0 \] ### Step 4: Solve for \( y \). Rearranging gives: \[ 3y = 25 \implies y = \frac{25}{3} \] ### Step 5: Substitute \( y \) back to find \( x \). Now substitute \( y = \frac{25}{3} \) back into the expression for \( x \): \[ x = 10 - 2\left(\frac{25}{3}\right) = 10 - \frac{50}{3} = \frac{30}{3} - \frac{50}{3} = -\frac{20}{3} \] ### Step 6: Point of intersection. Thus, the point of intersection is: \[ \left(-\frac{20}{3}, \frac{25}{3}\right) \] ### Step 7: Check which line passes through this point. Now we will check which of the given options passes through the point \(\left(-\frac{20}{3}, \frac{25}{3}\right)\). 1. **Option 1:** \( 5x - 4y = 0 \) \[ 5\left(-\frac{20}{3}\right) - 4\left(\frac{25}{3}\right) = -\frac{100}{3} - \frac{100}{3} = -\frac{200}{3} \neq 0 \] 2. **Option 2:** \( 5x + 4y = 0 \) \[ 5\left(-\frac{20}{3}\right) + 4\left(\frac{25}{3}\right) = -\frac{100}{3} + \frac{100}{3} = 0 \] This is true, so this option is valid. 3. **Option 3:** \( 4x - 5y = 0 \) \[ 4\left(-\frac{20}{3}\right) - 5\left(\frac{25}{3}\right) = -\frac{80}{3} - \frac{125}{3} = -\frac{205}{3} \neq 0 \] 4. **Option 4:** \( 4x + 5y = 0 \) \[ 4\left(-\frac{20}{3}\right) + 5\left(\frac{25}{3}\right) = -\frac{80}{3} + \frac{125}{3} = \frac{45}{3} \neq 0 \] ### Conclusion: The only line that passes through the point of intersection is: \[ \boxed{5x + 4y = 0} \]
