The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the lines represented by the equations \(6x - 3y + 10 = 0\) and \(2x - y + 9 = 0\) intersect at a point, are parallel, or are coincident, we can analyze the coefficients of the equations. ### Step 1: Identify the coefficients The given equations can be written in the standard form \(Ax + By + C = 0\). - For the first equation \(6x - 3y + 10 = 0\): - \(A_1 = 6\) - \(B_1 = -3\) - \(C_1 = 10\) - For the second equation \(2x - y + 9 = 0\): - \(A_2 = 2\) - \(B_2 = -1\) - \(C_2 = 9\) ### Step 2: Calculate the ratios of the coefficients Now we will calculate the ratios of the coefficients: 1. \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{6}{2} = 3\) 2. \(\frac{B_1}{B_2} = \frac{-3}{-1} = 3\) 3. \(\frac{C_1}{C_2} = \frac{10}{9}\) ### Step 3: Analyze the ratios We have: - \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = 3\) - \(\frac{B_1}{B_2} = 3\) - \(\frac{C_1}{C_2} = \frac{10}{9}\) ### Step 4: Determine the relationship between the lines According to the conditions for the relationship between two lines: - If \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{B_1}{B_2} \neq \frac{C_1}{C_2}\), the lines are parallel. - If all three ratios are equal, the lines are coincident. - If \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} \neq \frac{B_1}{B_2}\), the lines intersect at a point. In our case: - \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{B_1}{B_2} = 3\) and \(\frac{C_1}{C_2} \neq 3\) (since \(\frac{10}{9} \neq 3\)). ### Conclusion Since \(\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \frac{B_1}{B_2} \neq \frac{C_1}{C_2}\), the lines are parallel.
