Question

If each of the points (x1,4),(2,y1) lies on the line joining the points (2,1),(5,3), then the point P(x1,y1) lies on line
  1. 2x+6y+1=0
  2. 6(x+y)25=0
  3. 2x+3y6=0
  4. no solution

A
2x+6y+1=0
B
2x+3y6=0
C
no solution
D
6(x+y)25=0
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Equation of the line joining the points (2,1) and (5,3) is
x2y+1=523+1=>x2y+1=32=>2x+4=3y+3=>2x+3y1=0....(i)
(x1,4) lies on the line (i), thus we have
2x1+121=0=>2x1=11=>x1=112
Also (2,y1) lies on the line (i), thus we have
4+3y11=0=>3y1=5=>y1=53
Point (112,53) is not satisfying any given straight line
Therefore, no solution is the option
