(c) A does not lie on the line since 2×7+4 =18 ≠ 19 while B lies on the line since 2×8+4 =20

(b) y = −2 x + 5
(c) y = 3 , x = 2 (d) a = 5 , b = 15

6. (i) 3x + 2y = 18, For x=0 2y = 18 ⇒ y = 9 therefore A (0,9)
(ii) For y = 0, 3x = 18 ⇒ x = 6 therefore B (6,0)
0+ 6 9+ 0
(iii) midpoint between (0, 9) and (6, 0): , = (3, 4.5)

7. (a) y = −2 x + 3 gradient of line L1 = −2
(b) METHOD 1
( y − y1 ) = m ( x − x1 ) ⇒ ( y − (−4) ) = −2( x − 6)
y + 4 = −2 x + 12 ⇒ y = −2 x + 8
METHOD 2
Substituting the point ( 6, −4 ) in y = mx + c ⇒ c = 8 so y = −2 x + 8
(c) when line L1 cuts the x-axis, y = 0 ⇒ y = −2 x + 8 ⇒ x = 4
