Two rails are represented by the equations x + 2y - 4 = 0 and 2x + 4y - 12 = 0. Represent this situation geometrically

Solution:

To represent the equations geometrically, we will plot the points in the graph.

⇒ From equation (1)

When x = 0; y = 2 and x = 4; y = 0

⇒ From equation (2)

When x = 0; y = 3 and x = 6; y = 0

The geometrical representation of the two rails that are represented by the equations x + 2y - 4 = 0 and 2x + 4y - 12 = 0

The Line YZ represents the equation x + 2y - 4 = 0 by joining the points Y(0, 2), Z(4, 0)and the line AB represents the equation 2x + 4y - 12 = 0 by joining the points A(0, 3), B(6, 0)
