The equation \( \Large 2x^{2}-24y+11y^{2}=0 \) represents:


A) two parallel lines

B) two lines passing through the origin

C) two perpendicular lines

D) a circle.

Correct Answer:
C) two perpendicular lines

Description for Correct answer:
Given equation can be rewritten as

\( \Large 2x^{2}-22xy-2xy+11y^{2}=0 \)

=> \( \Large 2x \left(x-11y\right)-2y \left(x-11y\right)=0 \)

=> \( \Large \left(2x-2y\right) \left(x-11y\right)=0 \)

=> \( \Large 2x-2y=0\ or\ x-11y=0 \)

=> \( \Large y=x\ or\ y=\frac{x}{11} \)
