What is the equation of straight line passing through the point `(4, 3)` and making equal intercepts on the coordinate axes ?

A

`x+y=7`

B

`3x+4y=7`

C

`x-y=1`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Let equation of line be `x/a+y/a=1` or `x+y=a`
line passing through (4, 3), then `a=0`
Required equation, `x+y=7`
