Let A(-1,1) and B(2,3) be two points and P be a variable point ab… - Vidyadip

MCQ

Let $\mathrm{A}(-1,1)$ and $\mathrm{B}(2,3)$ be two points and $\mathrm{P}$ be a variable point above the line $A B$ such that the area of $\triangle \mathrm{PAB}$ is $10$ . If the locus of $\mathrm{P}$ is $\mathrm{ax}+\mathrm{by}=15$, then $5 a+2 b$ is :

✓
$-\frac{12}{5}$
B
$-\frac{6}{5}$
C
$4$
D
$6$

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

$-\frac{12}{5}$

a
$\frac{1}{2}\left|\begin{array}{lll}\mathrm{h} & \mathrm{k} & 1 \\ -1 & 1 & 1 \\ 2 & 3 & 1\end{array}\right|=10$

$ -2 x+3 y=25 $

$ -\frac{6}{5} x+\frac{9}{5} y=15 $

$ a=-\frac{6}{5}, b=\frac{9}{5} $

$ 5 a=-6,2 b=\frac{18}{5}$
