    The equation of line joining the point (2, 3) to the point of intersection\[2x+3y+1=0\]and \[3x-4y=8,\]is

    A)  \[3x+y-9=0\]    

    B)  \[5x-y-7=0\]

    C)  \[5x+y-13=0\]   

    D)  \[3x-y-3=0\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Equation of required line is \[{{L}_{1}}+\lambda {{L}_{2}}=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[(2x+3y+1)+\lambda (3x-4y-8)=0\] Since, this line passes through the point (2, 3) \[\therefore \] \[(2\times 2+3\times 3+1)+\lambda (3\times 2-4\times 3-8)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[(4+9+1)+\lambda (6-12-8)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\lambda =\frac{-14}{-14}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\lambda =1\] Hence, equation of required line is \[(2x+3y+1)+\lambda (3x-4y-8)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[5x-y-7=0\]
