The correct Answer is:
To find the coordinates of the points on the line \(3x + 2y = 5\) that are equidistant from the lines \(4x + 3y - 7 = 0\) and \(2y - 5 = 0\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the lines and their equations We have: 1. The line \(L_1: 3x + 2y = 5\) 2. The line \(L_2: 4x + 3y - 7 = 0\) 3. The line \(L_3: 2y - 5 = 0\) (which simplifies to \(y = \frac{5}{2}\)) ### Step 2: Find the distance from a point \((x_1, y_1)\) on line \(L_1\) to lines \(L_2\) and \(L_3\) The distance \(D\) from a point \((x_1, y_1)\) to a line \(Ax + By + C = 0\) is given by the formula: \[ D = \frac{|Ax_1 + By_1 + C|}{\sqrt{A^2 + B^2}} \] #### Distance to line \(L_2\): For line \(L_2: 4x + 3y - 7 = 0\): - Here, \(A = 4\), \(B = 3\), and \(C = -7\). - The distance \(D_1\) is: \[ D_1 = \frac{|4x_1 + 3y_1 - 7|}{\sqrt{4^2 + 3^2}} = \frac{|4x_1 + 3y_1 - 7|}{5} \] #### Distance to line \(L_3\): For line \(L_3: 2y - 5 = 0\): - Here, \(A = 0\), \(B = 2\), and \(C = -5\). - The distance \(D_2\) is: \[ D_2 = \frac{|0 \cdot x_1 + 2y_1 - 5|}{\sqrt{0^2 + 2^2}} = \frac{|2y_1 - 5|}{2} \] ### Step 3: Set the distances equal Since we want the points to be equidistant from both lines: \[ D_1 = D_2 \] This gives us: \[ \frac{|4x_1 + 3y_1 - 7|}{5} = \frac{|2y_1 - 5|}{2} \] ### Step 4: Substitute \(y_1\) from line \(L_1\) From the equation of line \(L_1\): \[ 2y_1 = 5 - 3x_1 \implies y_1 = \frac{5 - 3x_1}{2} \] ### Step 5: Substitute \(y_1\) into the distance equation Substituting \(y_1\) into the distance equation: \[ \frac{|4x_1 + 3\left(\frac{5 - 3x_1}{2}\right) - 7|}{5} = \frac{|2\left(\frac{5 - 3x_1}{2}\right) - 5|}{2} \] Simplifying both sides: 1. Left side: \[ 4x_1 + \frac{15 - 9x_1}{2} - 7 = 4x_1 + \frac{15 - 14}{2} = 4x_1 + \frac{1}{2} \] Thus: \[ |4x_1 + \frac{1}{2}| = 5D_1 \] 2. Right side: \[ |5 - 3x_1 - 5| = |-3x_1| = 3|x_1| \] ### Step 6: Solve the equation Equating both sides: \[ |4x_1 + \frac{1}{2}| = 3|x_1| \] This gives us two cases to solve: 1. \(4x_1 + \frac{1}{2} = 3x_1\) 2. \(4x_1 + \frac{1}{2} = -3x_1\) #### Case 1: \[ 4x_1 - 3x_1 = -\frac{1}{2} \implies x_1 = -\frac{1}{2} \] Substituting \(x_1\) back to find \(y_1\): \[ y_1 = \frac{5 - 3(-\frac{1}{2})}{2} = \frac{5 + \frac{3}{2}}{2} = \frac{\frac{10 + 3}{2}}{2} = \frac{13}{4} \] #### Case 2: \[ 4x_1 + 3x_1 = -\frac{1}{2} \implies 7x_1 = -\frac{1}{2} \implies x_1 = -\frac{1}{14} \] Substituting \(x_1\) back to find \(y_1\): \[ y_1 = \frac{5 - 3(-\frac{1}{14})}{2} = \frac{5 + \frac{3}{14}}{2} = \frac{\frac{70 + 3}{14}}{2} = \frac{73}{28} \] ### Final Coordinates The coordinates of the points on the line \(3x + 2y = 5\) that are equidistant from the lines \(4x + 3y - 7 = 0\) and \(2y - 5 = 0\) are: 1. \((- \frac{1}{2}, \frac{13}{4})\) 2. \((- \frac{1}{14}, \frac{73}{28})\)
