The equation of the line passing through (1, 1) and parallel to the line 2x + 3y – 7 = 0, is-

A

2x + 3y –5 = 0

B

3x + 2y –5 = 0

C

3x – 2y – 7 = 0

D

2x + 3y + 5 = 0

Answer

2x + 3y –5 = 0

Explanation

Solution

Let the equation 2x + 3y + k = 0 …(1)

it passes through (1, 1)

\ 2(1) + 3(1) + k = 0 k = –5

\ equation 2x + 3y – 5 = 0
