JEE Main2005MathematicsSequences and SeriesActual
If non-zero numbers a, b, c are in H.P., then the straight line x a + y b + 1 c =0 always passes through a fixed point. That point is
Options
- A(-1,2)
- B(-1,-2)
- C(1,-2)
- D(1,- 1 2 )
Correct answer
C. (1,-2)
Step-by-step solution
a, b, c are in H.P. aligned & 2 b - 1 a - 1 c =0 & x a + y b + 1 c =0 & x -1 - 1 -1 x=1, y=-2 aligned
