Question

What is the name of lines when the following equations are drawn on a graph?
3 x plus 4 y equals 2
6 y plus 8 y equals 4

  1. Intersecting lines
  2. Parallel lines
  3. Coincident lines
  4. None of the above

hintHint:

given two equations of line in the form
A1x + B1y + C1 = 0
A2x + B2y + C2 = 0
then following conditions hold
if fraction numerator A 1 over denominator A 2 end fraction equals space fraction numerator B 1 over denominator B 2 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator C 1 over denominator C 2 end fraction space comma space space t h e n space i t space i s space c o i n c i d e n t space

i f space comma space fraction numerator A 1 over denominator A 2 end fraction equals space fraction numerator B 1 over denominator B 2 end fraction space n o t space e q u a l space space fraction numerator C 1 over denominator C 2 end fraction space comma space space t h e n space i t space i s space p a r a l l e l space
e l s e space i f space comma space fraction numerator A 1 over denominator A 2 end fraction space n o t space e q u a l space fraction numerator B 1 over denominator B 2 end fraction space n o t space e q u a l space fraction numerator C 1 over denominator C 2 end fraction space comma space space t h e n space i t space i s space i n t e r s e c t i n g space

The correct answer is: Coincident lines


    Given two lines
    3 x plus 4 y equals 2
6 y plus 8 y equals 4
    step 1 :
    check for conditions
    fraction numerator A 1 over denominator A 2 end fraction equals space fraction numerator B 1 over denominator B 2 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator C 1 over denominator C 2 end fraction space comma space space t h e n space i t space i s space c o i n c i d e n t space

i f space comma space fraction numerator A 1 over denominator A 2 end fraction equals space fraction numerator B 1 over denominator B 2 end fraction space n o t space e q u a l space space fraction numerator C 1 over denominator C 2 end fraction space comma space space t h e n space i t space i s space p a r a l l e l space
e l s e space i f space comma space fraction numerator A 1 over denominator A 2 end fraction space n o t space e q u a l space fraction numerator B 1 over denominator B 2 end fraction space n o t space e q u a l space fraction numerator C 1 over denominator C 2 end fraction space comma space space t h e n space i t space i s space i n t e r s e c t i n g space
    step 2;
    3 over 6 space equals space fraction numerator 4 over denominator 8 space end fraction space equals space 2 over 4 , condition for coincidence holds
    So , Given lines are coincident
