If the line p x-q y=r intersects the coordinate axes at (a, 0) and (0, b) , then the value of (a+b) is equal to
Options
- Ar(q+p) p q
- Br(q-p) p q
- Cr(p-q) p q
- Dr(p-q) p+q
Correct answer
B. r(q-p) p q
Step-by-step solution
We have, p x-q y=r intersect the coordinates axes at (a, 0) and (0, b) . p a=r a= r p 0-b q=r b= -r q a+b= r p - r q = r(q-p) p q
