The equation of the line passing through the point of intersection of lines 2 x - y + 2 = 0 and x + y + 4 = 0 and the point 5 , - 2 is
Options
- Ay + 2 = 0
- By - 2 = 0
- C4 x - 3 y - 6 = 0
- Dx - y - 7 = 0
Correct answer
A. y + 2 = 0
Step-by-step solution
L 1 :   2 x - y + 2 = 0 L 2 :   x + y + 4 = 0 L 1 + λ L 2 = 0 ( 2 x - y + 2 ) + λ ( x + y + 4 ) = 0 It passes through ( 5 , - 2 ) ( 10 + 2 + 2 ) + λ 5 - 2 + 4 = 0 7 λ = - 14 λ = - 2 - 3 y - 6 = 0 y + 2 = 0
