The correct Answer is:
To find the equation of the line that passes through the intersection of the lines \(2x - y = 1\) and \(3x + 2y = -9\) and makes an angle of \(30^\circ\) with the positive direction of the x-axis, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the intersection of the two lines We have the equations: 1. \(2x - y = 1\) (Line 1) 2. \(3x + 2y = -9\) (Line 2) To find the intersection, we can solve these equations simultaneously. We can express \(y\) from Line 1: \[ y = 2x - 1 \] Now, substitute \(y\) in Line 2: \[ 3x + 2(2x - 1) = -9 \] Expanding this gives: \[ 3x + 4x - 2 = -9 \] Combining like terms: \[ 7x - 2 = -9 \] Adding 2 to both sides: \[ 7x = -7 \] Dividing by 7: \[ x = -1 \] Now, substitute \(x = -1\) back into Line 1 to find \(y\): \[ y = 2(-1) - 1 = -2 - 1 = -3 \] Thus, the intersection point is \((-1, -3)\). ### Step 2: Determine the slope of the line The angle given is \(30^\circ\). The slope \(m\) of a line making an angle \(\theta\) with the positive x-axis is given by: \[ m = \tan(\theta) \] For \(\theta = 30^\circ\): \[ m = \tan(30^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \] ### Step 3: Use the point-slope form to find the equation of the line We can use the point-slope form of the equation of a line, which is: \[ y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) \] Substituting \(m = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\), \(x_1 = -1\), and \(y_1 = -3\): \[ y - (-3) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}(x - (-1)) \] This simplifies to: \[ y + 3 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}(x + 1) \] ### Step 4: Rearranging the equation Now, we can rearrange the equation: \[ y + 3 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}x + \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \] Subtracting 3 from both sides: \[ y = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}x + \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} - 3 \] ### Final Equation Thus, the equation of the line is: \[ y = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}x + \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} - 3\right) \]
