MCQ

Two points $(a, 0)$ and $(0, b)$ are joined by a straight line, Another point on this line is

✓
$(3a, - 2b)$
B
$({a^2},ab)$
C
$( - 3a,\,2b)$
D
$(a,\,b)$

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

$(3a, - 2b)$

a
(a) Equation of the required line is, $\frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} = 1$.
From option $(a)$, only point $(3a, - 2b)$ lies on it.
