Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\left(\frac{7}{6}, \frac{11}{6}\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of given circles \(\begin{aligned} & S_1: x^2+y^2-4 x-6 y+5=0 \\ & S_2: x^2+y^2-2 x-4 y-1=0 \end{aligned}\) and \(\quad S_3: x^2+y^2-6 x-2 y=0\) \(\therefore\) Radical axis of circles \(S_1\) and \(S_2\) is \(2 x+2 y-6=0 \Rightarrow x+y=3\)...(i) Similarly, the radical…
