engineering mathematics MCQ #1871

  1. Question 1

    Q1. The equation of the line passing through (2, 3) and parallel to x + 2y = 4 is

    • A) x + 2y = 8
    • B) x + 2y = 7
    • C) x + 2y = 6
    • D) x + 2y = 5

    Answer: x + 2y = 8

    Explanation: Slope of given line is -1 / 2, so the required line is y - 3 = (-1 / 2)(x - 2), simplifying gives x + 2y = 8.
