The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze both statements and verify their validity step by step. ### Statement I: The lines given by the equation \( x(a + 2b) + y(a + 3b) = a + b \) are concurrent at the point \( (2, -1) \). **Step 1:** Substitute \( x = 2 \) and \( y = -1 \) into the equation. \[ 2(a + 2b) + (-1)(a + 3b) = a + b \] **Step 2:** Simplify the left-hand side. \[ 2(a + 2b) - (a + 3b) = 2a + 4b - a - 3b \] **Step 3:** Combine like terms. \[ (2a - a) + (4b - 3b) = a + b \] This simplifies to: \[ a + b = a + b \] **Step 4:** Since both sides of the equation are equal, Statement I is true. ### Statement II: The lines given by the equations \( x + y - 1 = 0 \) and \( 2x + 3y - 1 = 0 \) intersect at the point \( (2, -1) \). **Step 1:** Substitute \( x = 2 \) and \( y = -1 \) into the first equation. \[ 2 + (-1) - 1 = 0 \] **Step 2:** Simplify the left-hand side. \[ 2 - 1 - 1 = 0 \implies 0 = 0 \] This confirms that the point satisfies the first equation. **Step 3:** Now substitute \( x = 2 \) and \( y = -1 \) into the second equation. \[ 2(2) + 3(-1) - 1 = 0 \] **Step 4:** Simplify the left-hand side. \[ 4 - 3 - 1 = 0 \implies 0 = 0 \] This confirms that the point satisfies the second equation as well. ### Conclusion: Both statements are true. However, we need to determine if Statement II serves as a complete explanation for Statement I. **Step 1:** Analyze the relationship between the two statements. The lines in Statement I are parameterized by \( a \) and \( b \), while Statement II deals with specific lines. **Step 2:** Set \( a = 0 \) and \( b = 1 \) in Statement I's equation: \[ x(0 + 2 \cdot 1) + y(0 + 3 \cdot 1) = 0 + 1 \implies 2x + 3y = 1 \] **Step 3:** Set \( a = 1 \) and \( b = 0 \): \[ x(1 + 2 \cdot 0) + y(1 + 3 \cdot 0) = 1 + 0 \implies x + y = 1 \] **Step 4:** The two lines derived from Statement I are indeed the lines in Statement II. However, Statement II does not explain the concurrency of the lines for all values of \( a \) and \( b \). Thus, Statement II is not a complete explanation for Statement I. ### Final Answer: Both statements are true, but Statement II does not completely explain Statement I.
