Answer» Correct Answer - D Condition for dependent linear equations `(a_(1))/(a_(2)) = (b_(1))/(b_(2)) = c_(1)/(c_(2)) = (1)/(k)` Give equation of line is, `-5x + 7y - 2 = 0` Here, `" " a_(1) = -5, b_(1) = 7, c_(1) = -2` From Eq. (i), `" " -(5)/(a_(2)) = (7)/(b_(2)) = - (2)/(c_(2)) = (1)/(k) " " ` [say] `rArr " " a_(2) = -5k, b_(2) = 7k, c_(2) = -2k` where, k is any arbitrary constant. Putting k = 2, then `" " a_(2) = -10 , b_(2) = 14` and `" " c_(2) = -4` `:.` The required equation of line becomes `" " a_(2) x + b_(2) y + c_(2) = 0` `rArr " " -10x + 14y - 4 = 0` `rArr " " 10x - 14y + 4 = 0`  |
