SSC CGL 2025 PYQ — Question 58

SSC CGL - 13 Sep 2025 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q58

Which of these lines is parallel to 3x - 2y = 10?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 3x - 2y = 5.

For parallel lines, a1a2=b1b2\frac{a_1}{a_2} = \frac{b_1}{b_2}  but not equal to (c1/c2)

Now, from options,

Option 1: a1/a1 = 3/3 = 1

b1/b2 = -2/-2 = 1

c1/c2 = 10/5 = 2

Hence the lines 3x - 2y = 10 and 3x - 2y = 5 are parallel to each other.
