= 0/2, 1/2
= 0, ½

d) gradient of line perpendicular to the line with gradient -1/2


= negative reciprocal of -1/2 = 2

e) 4x- 3y = -9
applying equation, y = mx + c, we get
-3y = -9 – 4x
y = (-4x – 9)/-3
y = 4x/3 + 3

f) to find, gradient of 4x + 5y = 11
5y = 11 – 4x
Y = (-4x + 11)/5
y = -4x/5 + 11/5
applying, y = mx + c in above equation we get,
slope, m = -4/5

g) 2x + 3y = 6 2x + 3y = 6
2x = 6-3y 3y = 6 - 2x
x = (6-3y)/2 y = (6 – 2x)/3

y = 4-(-2) = 4+2 = 6
m = 6/2 = 3
equation, y = 3x + c

5. If A, B, C are collinear, then the slope between two points is same.

Slope [AB] = Y2 – Y1 / X2 – X1
= 4 – (-2) / 4 – 1
= 6/3 = 2
Slope [BC] = y2 – y1 / x2 – x1
=6–4/5–4
= 2/1 = 2
Slope [AB] = Slope [BC]
Hence, A, B, C are collinear

6. Slope [AB] = 0 – 2 / b – (-6)


= -2 / b + 6
Slope [BC] = - 4 – 0 / 3 – b
= -4 / 3 – b
As A, B, C are collinear, slope [AB] = Slope [BC]
-2 / b + 6 = -4 / 3 – b
- 2 (3 – b) = -4 (b+6)
-6 + 2b = -4b – 24
2b + 4b = -24 + 6
6b = -18
b = -3
