What is equation of line through 1 2 so that segment of line?

Sagot :

The equation of the line passing through the point so that segment of the line i.e. [tex]y+2x=4[/tex]

The equation of the line be [tex]y=mx+c[/tex]

Now the line intersects at the x-axis  [tex](a,0)[/tex] and the point at which the y-axis intersect [tex](0,b)[/tex]

Plug in the value [tex](a,0)\\[/tex]

[tex]ma+c=0\\a=\frac{-c}{m}[/tex]

and now plug in the value [tex](b,0)[/tex]

[tex]b=c+0\\b=c[/tex]

now [tex](1,2)[/tex] is the midpoint of [tex](a,0)[/tex] and [tex](0,b)\\[/tex]

[tex]2=\frac{0+b}{2\\}\\ b=c\\\frac{c}{2} =2\\c=4[/tex]

and

[tex]1=\frac{a+0}{2}\\1=\frac{-c}{2m} \\m=-2[/tex]

plug in the value of m and c

[tex]y+2x=4[/tex] is the required equation
