Options:
  • A 3x-y+3=0
  • B 21x-7y+32=0
  • C 15x-5y+32=0
  • D 3x-y+35=0
Solution:

The correct answer is: 21x-7y+32=0

We have ADOB, APPD=34

Equation of line OB, y=3x

Equation of line AD, y+1=-13(x+3)

y=-x3-2

Intersection point of AD and OB is D

D-35,-95

Now, A(-3, -1), D-35,-95, AP:PD = 3:4

So, using section formula

 P-95-127,-275-47P-6935,-4735

So, equation of line L is y=3x+k

Using point P, K=16035=327

Ly=3x+327
