Find the value of "a" so that the point (3, a) lie on the Represented

1.	Find the value of "a" so that the point (3, a) lie on the Represented by 2x - 3y = 5
Answer» Since the point (3, a) lies on the line 2x - 3y = 5, we have2\xa0{tex}\\times{/tex}\xa03 - 3\xa0{tex}\\times{/tex}\xa0a = 5{tex}\\Rightarrow{/tex}\xa06 - 3a = 5{tex}\\Rightarrow{/tex}\xa03a = 1{tex}\\Rightarrow{/tex}\xa0{tex}a = \\frac { 1 } { 3 }{/tex}
