A line cutting off intercept -3 from the...

A line cutting off intercept `-3` from the `Y-`axis and the tangent at angle to the `X-`axis is `(3)/(5)`, its equation is

A

`5y-3x+15=0`

B

`3y-5x+15=0`

C

`5y-3x-15=0`

D

None of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Given that, c=-3and `m=(3)/(5)`
`therefore` Equation of the line is `y=mx+c`
`y=(3)/(5)x-3`
`rArr5y=3x-15`
`rArr5y-3x+15=0`
