Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let point of intersection \(A\left(x_1, y_1\right)\) and \(B\left(x_2, y_2\right)\) \(\therefore \frac{x_1+x_2}{2}=1 \Rightarrow x_2=2-x_1 \Rightarrow \frac{y_1+y_2}{2}=2 \Rightarrow y_2=4-y_1\) \(\because\) A lies on \(3 x-2 y-1=0\) \(\therefore 3 x_1-2 y_1-1=0\) ....(i) and…
