Question
The line x + y = 3 lies closer to the origin as compared to the line x + y = 5 when plotted on the cartesian plane.
Answer: Option A
:
A
Let us consider the equation x + y = 3
when x = 0 then y = 3
similarly, when y = 0 then x = 3
Let us consider the equation x + y = 5
when x = 0 then y = 5
similarly, when y = 0 then x = 5
By plotting the graphs ofboth of the equations, we can easily observethat the line x + y = 3 lies closer to the origin.
