By drawing a graph for each of the equations `3x+y+5=0,3y-x=5 and 2x+5y=1` on the same graph paper. Show that the lines given by these equations are concurrent (i.e., they pass through the same point). Take 2cm=1 unit the both the axes.

The correct Answer is:
To show that the lines given by the equations \(3x + y + 5 = 0\), \(3y - x = 5\), and \(2x + 5y = 1\) are concurrent, we will graph each equation and find their intersection point. ### Step 1: Rewrite the equations in slope-intercept form 1. **Equation 1:** \(3x + y + 5 = 0\) - Rearranging gives: \(y = -3x - 5\) 2. **Equation 2:** \(3y - x = 5\) - Rearranging gives: \(3y = x + 5\) or \(y = \frac{1}{3}x + \frac{5}{3}\) 3. **Equation 3:** \(2x + 5y = 1\) - Rearranging gives: \(5y = -2x + 1\) or \(y = -\frac{2}{5}x + \frac{1}{5}\) ### Step 2: Create a table of values for each equation For each equation, we will select values for \(x\) and calculate the corresponding \(y\) values. #### For \(y = -3x - 5\): | \(x\) | \(y\) | |-------|----------------| | -1 | -2 | | 0 | -5 | | 1 | -8 | #### For \(y = \frac{1}{3}x + \frac{5}{3}\): | \(x\) | \(y\) | |-------|----------------| | 0 | \(\frac{5}{3}\) | | 3 | 4 | | -3 | 0 | #### For \(y = -\frac{2}{5}x + \frac{1}{5}\): | \(x\) | \(y\) | |-------|----------------| | 0 | \(\frac{1}{5}\) | | 5 | -1 | | -5 | 3 | ### Step 3: Plot the points on a graph 1. **Plot points for the first equation** \(y = -3x - 5\): - Points: \((-1, -2)\), \((0, -5)\), \((1, -8)\) 2. **Plot points for the second equation** \(y = \frac{1}{3}x + \frac{5}{3}\): - Points: \((0, \frac{5}{3})\), \((3, 4)\), \((-3, 0)\) 3. **Plot points for the third equation** \(y = -\frac{2}{5}x + \frac{1}{5}\): - Points: \((0, \frac{1}{5})\), \((5, -1)\), \((-5, 3)\) ### Step 4: Draw the lines - Connect the points for each equation with a straight line. ### Step 5: Identify the point of intersection - Observe where all three lines intersect. The intersection point is \((-2, 1)\). ### Conclusion Since all three lines intersect at the point \((-2, 1)\), we conclude that the lines are concurrent. ---
