Question : The graphs of the equations
$4 x+\frac{1}{3} y=\frac{8}{3}$ and $\frac{1}{2} x+\frac{3}{4} y+\frac{5}{2}=0$ intersect at a point P. The point P also lies on the graph of the equation:

Option 1: $x + 2y - 5 = 0$

Option 2: $3x - y - 7 = 0$

Option 3: $x - 3y - 12= 0$

Option 4: $4x - y + 7= 0$

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024
