What are the points on the yaxis whose distance from the line `x/3+y/4=1`is 4 units.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let (0,b) be the point on the y-axis whose distance from line 3x​+4y​=1 is 4 units.
The given line can be written as 4x+3y−12=0....(1)
Thus using distance formula,
`4=(​4(0)+3(b)−12∣)/sqrt(4^2+3^2)`
`=>``4=(3b−12)/5`
​ `=>``20=(3b−12)`
`=>20=pm(3b−12)`
`=>`20=(3b−12) or `20=−{3b−12}`
