Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 8

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Centroid at \(12 x^2-20 x y+7 y^2=0\) (pair at straight lines) and \(2 x-3 y+4=0\) is \((\alpha, \beta)\). So, \( \begin{aligned} 12 x^2-14 x y-6 x y+7 y^2 & =0 \\ 2 x(6 x-7 y)-y(6 x-7 y) & =0 \\ 2 x-y=0,6 x-7 y & =0 \end{aligned} \) and So, centroid is…
