Transforming to parallel axes through a point \((p, q), \quad\) the \(\quad\) equation \(2 x^{2}+3 x y+4 y^{2}+x+18 y+25=0\) becomes
\(2 x^{2}+3 x y+4 y^{2}=1 .\) Then

  1. A \(p=-2, q=3\)
  2. B \(p=2, q=-3\)
  3. C \(p=3, q=-4\)
  4. D \(p=-4, q=3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(p=2, q=-3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given equations are \[ \begin{array}{r} 2 x^{2}+3 x y+4 y^{2}+x+18 y+25=0 ...(i)\\ 2 x^{2}+3 x y+4 y^{2}+1=0 ....(ii) \end{array} \] Let the origin be transferred to \((p, q)\) axes being parallel to the previous axes; then the equation (i) becomes.…
