The correct Answer is:
To find the equation of the straight line that passes through the intersection of the lines \(2x + y = 1\) and \(3x + 2y = 5\) and also passes through the origin, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the intersection point of the two lines We have the equations: 1. \(2x + y = 1\) (Equation 1) 2. \(3x + 2y = 5\) (Equation 2) To find the intersection, we can solve these equations simultaneously. ### Step 2: Solve the equations From Equation 1, we can express \(y\) in terms of \(x\): \[ y = 1 - 2x \] Now, substitute this expression for \(y\) into Equation 2: \[ 3x + 2(1 - 2x) = 5 \] Expanding this gives: \[ 3x + 2 - 4x = 5 \] Combining like terms: \[ -1x + 2 = 5 \] Subtracting 2 from both sides: \[ -x = 3 \] Thus: \[ x = -3 \] ### Step 3: Find the value of \(y\) Now substitute \(x = -3\) back into Equation 1 to find \(y\): \[ 2(-3) + y = 1 \] This simplifies to: \[ -6 + y = 1 \] Adding 6 to both sides: \[ y = 7 \] ### Step 4: Intersection point The intersection point of the two lines is \((-3, 7)\). ### Step 5: Find the equation of the line through the origin and the intersection point We need to find the equation of the line that passes through the points \((0, 0)\) (the origin) and \((-3, 7)\). Using the two-point form of the equation of a line: \[ y - y_1 = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}(x - x_1) \] Substituting \((x_1, y_1) = (0, 0)\) and \((x_2, y_2) = (-3, 7)\): \[ y - 0 = \frac{7 - 0}{-3 - 0}(x - 0) \] This simplifies to: \[ y = \frac{7}{-3}x \] or \[ y = -\frac{7}{3}x \] ### Step 6: Rearranging to standard form To express this in standard form \(Ax + By + C = 0\): \[ 7x + 3y = 0 \] ### Final Answer The equation of the straight line is: \[ 7x + 3y = 0 \]
