An elephant standing at the junction of two straight roads represented by the equations x − y+2 = 0 and y − 1 = 0 wants to reach another road whose equation is x − y − 3 = 0 . If the elephant can move in any direction and wants to cover the shortest distance to its destination road, then the equation of the path that the elephant should follow is:
