Question

If 3a + 2b + 6c = 0 the family of straight lines ax + by + c = 0 passes through a fixed point. Find the coordinates of fixed point.

Solution

Correct option is

 

Given,  

        3a + 2b + 6c = 0    

       

and family of straight lines is  

        ax + by + c = 0                   … (ii) 

Substituting (i) from (ii) then 

       

which is equation of a line passing through the point of intersection of the lines.    

          

∴ The coordinates of fixed point are, 

       .
