Answer:

The other half of the coordinate is 9

Explanation:

Given as :

The points is ( a , 5 )

The line equation is 4 x - 7 y = 1

Now if the given points lies on the given line , then it must satisfy the line equation

So , We have to put the points on the given line

I. e 4 x - 7 y = 1

And the points as ( x , y ) = ( a , 5 )

So , 4 × a - 7 × 5 = 1

Or, 4 a - 35 = 1

or, 4 a = 1 + 35

Or , 4 a = 36

∴ a =
(36)/(4)

I.e a = 9

So, The value of coordinates as ( a , 5 ) is ( 9 , 5 )

Hence The other half of the coordinate is 9 . Answer
