The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the straight lines given by the equations \(x - y - 1 = 0\), \(4x + 3y - 25 = 0\), and \(2x - 3y + 1 = 0\) are concurrent, we need to find their intersection points and check if they all intersect at a single point. ### Step 1: Solve the first two equations We will first solve the equations \(x - y - 1 = 0\) and \(4x + 3y - 25 = 0\). From the first equation, we can express \(y\) in terms of \(x\): \[ y = x - 1 \tag{1} \] Now, substitute equation (1) into the second equation: \[ 4x + 3(x - 1) - 25 = 0 \] Simplifying this: \[ 4x + 3x - 3 - 25 = 0 \\ 7x - 28 = 0 \\ 7x = 28 \\ x = 4 \] ### Step 2: Find the value of \(y\) Now that we have \(x = 4\), we can substitute this value back into equation (1) to find \(y\): \[ y = 4 - 1 = 3 \] So, the intersection point of the first two lines is \((4, 3)\). ### Step 3: Check if the intersection point satisfies the third equation Now we need to check if the point \((4, 3)\) satisfies the third equation \(2x - 3y + 1 = 0\): \[ 2(4) - 3(3) + 1 = 0 \\ 8 - 9 + 1 = 0 \\ 0 = 0 \] Since the point \((4, 3)\) satisfies the third equation, all three lines intersect at the same point. ### Conclusion Thus, the lines \(x - y - 1 = 0\), \(4x + 3y - 25 = 0\), and \(2x - 3y + 1 = 0\) are concurrent. ### Final Answer Hence, these three lines are concurrent. ---
