The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the point at which the set of lines given by the equation \( ax + by + c = 0 \) is concurrent, given the condition \( 3a + 2b + 4c = 0 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Condition**: We have the equation of lines in the form \( ax + by + c = 0 \) and a condition \( 3a + 2b + 4c = 0 \). This condition implies that the coefficients \( a, b, c \) are related in such a way that the lines are concurrent. 2. **Rearranging the Condition**: We can rewrite the condition \( 3a + 2b + 4c = 0 \) by dividing the entire equation by 4: \[ \frac{3}{4}a + \frac{1}{2}b + c = 0 \] This gives us a new equation that we can compare with the original line equation. 3. **Comparing with the Line Equation**: The original line equation is \( ax + by + c = 0 \). We can denote this as Equation (1). The rearranged condition can be denoted as Equation (2): \[ \frac{3}{4}a + \frac{1}{2}b + c = 0 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \] 4. **Identifying the Coefficients**: From Equation (1) and Equation (2), we can identify: - For \( a \): \( x = \frac{3}{4} \) - For \( b \): \( y = \frac{1}{2} \) 5. **Finding the Concurrent Point**: The point of concurrency of the lines can be expressed as: \[ \left( \frac{3}{4}, \frac{1}{2} \right) \] 6. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the point at which the set of lines is concurrent is: \[ \boxed{\left( \frac{3}{4}, \frac{1}{2} \right)} \]
