Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{g}+1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Point of division: \((x,y) = \left(\frac{(-5)(4) + (4)(3)}{-5+4}, \frac{(-5)(6) + (4)(5)}{-5+4}\right) = (8,10)\) Substitute point into L: \(6(8) + 3(10) + k = 0 \Rightarrow 48 + 30 + k = 0 \Rightarrow k = -78\) Line L: \(6x + 3y - 78 = 0 \Rightarrow 2x + y - 26 = 0\)…
