Answer:

a= 2

b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p(x,y) = (6,0)

q(x,y) = (3,2)

ax + by = 12

Required

Find a and b

In p(x,y) = (6,0), x = 6 and y = 0.

This gives:

a*6 + b*0 = 12

6a = 12

Divide by 6

a= 2

In q(x,y) = (3,2). x = 3 and y = 2.

This gives:

a*3 + b*2 = 12

3a + 2b = 12

Substitute 2 for a

3*2 + 2b = 12

6 + 2b = 12

Collect Like Terms

2b = 12 - 6

2b = 6

Divide by 2

b = 3
