A triangle is formed by XX-axis, YY-axis and the line 3x+4y=603x + 4y = 60. Then the number of points P(a,b)P\left(a, b\right) which lie strictly inside the triangle, where aa is an integer and bb is a multiple of aa, is _____ .A triangle is formed by X -axis, Y -axis and the line 3x + 4y = 60 . Then the number of points P(a, b) which lie

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Given:

3x+4y=603x + 4y = 60

⇒x20+y15=1⇒ \dfrac{x}{20} + \dfrac{y}{15} = 1

A triangle is formed by X -axis, Y -axis and the line 3x + 4y = 60 . Then the number of points P(a, b) which lie

If x=1,y=574=14.25x = 1, y = \dfrac{57}{4} = 14 . 25

So, points are

\left(1, 1\right)\left(1, 2\right) - \left(1, 14\right) ⇒ 14points.</p><p>Ifpoints.</p><p>Ifx = 2, y = \dfrac{27}{2} = 13 . 5</p><p>So,pointsare</p><p>(2,2)(2,4)…(2,12)⇒6</p><p>So, points are</p><p>\left(2, 2\right)\left(2, 4\right) \ldots \left(2, 12\right) ⇒ 6 points.

If x=3,y=514=12.75x = 3, y = \dfrac{51}{4} = 12 . 75

So, points are

\left(3, 3\right)\left(3, 6\right) - \left(3, 12\right) ⇒ 4points.</p><p>Ifpoints.</p><p>Ifx = 4, y = 12</p><p>So,pointsare</p><p>(4,4)(4,8)⇒2</p><p>So, points are</p><p>\left(4, 4\right)\left(4, 8\right) ⇒ 2 points.

If x=5,y=454=11.25x = 5, y = \dfrac{45}{4} = 11 . 25

So, points are

\left(5, 5\right), \left(5, 10\right) ⇒ 2points.</p><p>Ifpoints.</p><p>Ifx = 6, y = \dfrac{21}{2} = 10 . 5</p><p>So,pointis</p><p>(6,6)⇒1</p><p>So, point is</p><p>\left(6, 6\right) ⇒ 1 point

If x=7,y=394=9.75x = 7, y = \dfrac{39}{4} = 9 . 75

So, point is

\left(7, 7\right) ⇒ 1point</p><p>Ifpoint</p><p>Ifx = 8, y = 9</p><p>So,pointis</p><p>(8,8)⇒1</p><p>So, point is</p><p>\left(8, 8\right) ⇒ 1 point

If x=9⇒y=334=8.25⇒x = 9 ⇒ y = \dfrac{33}{4} = 8 . 25 ⇒ no point

Total points inside the triangle

=31= 31 points
