Lines x - 4 = 0 and 3y = 1 intersect each other at point P. The co-ordinates of point P are:

  1. (4,13)\Big(4,-\dfrac{1}{3}\Big)

  2. (4,13)\Big(4,\dfrac{1}{3}\Big)

  3. (4,13)\Big(-4,\dfrac{1}{3}\Big)

  4. (4,13)\Big(-4,-\dfrac{1}{3}\Big)

Answer

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

This line represents a vertical line parallel to y-axis.

3y = 1 ⇒ y = 13\dfrac{1}{3}

This represents a horizontal line parallel to x-axis.

Since the first line has x = 4 and the second line has y = 13\dfrac{1}{3}, the point od intersection P is (4, 13\dfrac{1}{3}).

Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
