उत्तर
Key concept: Section formula
`(x,y) = (mx_2 +nx_1)/(m+n), (my_2 + ny_1)/(m+n)`
`p(x,y) = (1(5)+2(2))/(1+2), (1(-8)+2(1))/(1+2)`
`x = (5+4)/3`
`x=9/3`
x = 3
`y = (-8+2)/3`
`y = (-6)/3`
y = −2
2x − y + k = 0 (x = 3, y = −2)
2(3) − (−2) + k = 0
6 + 2 + k = 0
k = −8

(Street Plan): A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the North-South direction and East-West direction.
All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and are 200 m apart. There are 5 streets in each direction. Using 1cm = 200 m, draw a model of the city on your notebook. Represent the roads/streets by single lines.
There are many cross- streets in your model. A particular cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North - South direction and another in the East - West direction. Each cross street is referred to in the following manner : If the 2nd street running in the North - South direction and 5th in the East - West direction meet at some crossing, then we will call this cross-street (2, 5). Using this convention, find:
- how many cross - streets can be referred to as (4, 3).
- how many cross - streets can be referred to as (3, 4).
