Let LL denote the line in the xyxy-plane with xandyx and y intercepts as 3and13 and 1 respectively. Then the image of the point(−1,−4)\left(- 1, - 4\right) in the line is :

Options

  1. A(115,285)\left(\dfrac{11}{5}, \dfrac{28}{5}\right)
  2. B(295,85)\left(\dfrac{29}{5}, \dfrac{8}{5}\right)
  3. C(85,295)\left(\dfrac{8}{5}, \dfrac{29}{5}\right)
  4. D(295,115)\left(\dfrac{29}{5}, \dfrac{11}{5}\right)

Correct answer

A. (115,285)\left(\dfrac{11}{5}, \dfrac{28}{5}\right)

Step-by-step solution

Equation of line is

x3+y1=1⇒x+3y−3=0\dfrac{x}{3} + \dfrac{y}{1} = 1 ⇒ x + 3y - 3 = 0

if image is\left({x}_{1,}{y}_{1}\right)</p><p>Then,</p><p></p><p>Then,</p><p>\dfrac{{x}_{1} + 1}{1} = \dfrac{{y}_{1} + 4}{3} = - 2\left(\dfrac{- 1 - 12 - 3}{10}\right)</p><p></p><p>{x}_{1} + 1 = \dfrac{{y}_{1} + 4}{3} = \dfrac{16}{5}</p><p></p><p>⇒ {x}_{1} = \dfrac{11}{5}, {y}_{1} = \dfrac{28}{5}
