The correct answer is: x2-y2=0

Given,

Line 6x2-xy-12y2=0

6x2-9xy+8xy-12y2=0

3x+4y2x-3y=0 ..........1

Now solving 15x2+14xy-8y2=0 we get,

15x2+20xy-6xy-8y2=0

5x-2y3x+4y=0 ......2

From equation 1 & 2 we get common line as 3x+4y=0

Now line passing through the point -1,1 and parallel to the common line will be 3x+4y-1=0

Now we will find the equation of pair of lines joining the origin to the points of intersection of the curve 2x2-xy-y2+x-y=0 and the line 3x+4y-1=0 by homogenising the equations,

So putting the value of 1=3x+4y in 2x2-xy-y2+x×1-y×1=0 we get,

2x2-xy-y2+x×3x+4y-y×3x+4y=0

2x2-xy-y2+3x2+4xy-3xy-4y2=0

2x2-y2+3x2-4y2=0

5x2-5y2=0

x2-y2=0
