Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} 3 x+4 y-5 & =0 \quad \ldots (i) \\ 2 x+3 y-4 & =0 \quad \ldots (ii) \\ \text {and } \quad p x+4 y-6 & =0 \quad \ldots (iii) \end{aligned}\) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get \(x=-1, y=2\) So, \(\quad-p+8-6=0 \Rightarrow p=2\)
