Solution:
Given,
2y – x = 8……. (i)
5y – x = 14……. (ii)
y – 2x = 1……… (iii)
For equation (i),
⇒ y = (x + 8)/2
When x = -4, we have y = (-4 + 8)/2 = 2
When x = 0, we have y = (0 + 8)/2 = 4
Thusm we have the following table giving points on the line 2y – x = 8
For equation (ii),
We solve for y:
⇒ y = (x + 14)/5
So, when x = -4
y = ((-4) + 14)/5= 2
And, when x = 1
⇒ y = (1 + 14)/5= 3
Thusm we have the following table giving points on the line 5y – x = 14
Finally, for equation (iii),
⇒ y = (2x + 1)
When x = -1, we have y = (2(-1) + 1) = -1
When x = 1, we have y = (2(1) + 1) = 3
Thusm we have the following table giving points on the line y – 2x = 1
Graph of the equations (i), (ii) and (iii) is as below:
From the above graph, we observe that the lines taken in pairs intersect at points A(-4,2), B(1,3) and C(2,5).
Hencem the vertices of the triangle are A(-4, 2), B(1, 3) and C(2,5).
