Question

The number of integral values of m, for which the x-coordinates of the point of intersection of the lines 2x + 4y = 9 and 

y = mx + 1 is also an integral is

Solution

Correct option is

2

Eliminating y, the x-coordinates of point of intersection is given by

        

Because x is also an integral

∴  3 + 4= 1, –1, 5 or –5

or       4= –2,  –4,2, –8

 

In all four values but integral values of m are only two i.e. –1 and –2.
