Detailed Solution

It is given the lines y=x,3y=x and x+y=8.
The vertices of the triangle will be the point of intersection of given lines taken two at a time.
So, we need to find the points of intersection of the lines.
Therefore,
 y=x         (1) 3y=x        (2)
x+y=8  (3)
Taking (1) and (2),
Let, the point of intersection of above two lines is A.
Subtract (1)from (2), we get,
2y=0 y=0
Put this value of in equation (1), we get,
y=x=0
Therefore, the coordinates of A are (0,0).
Taking (1) and (3)
Let, the point of intersection of above two lines is B.
Subtract (1)from (3), we get,
x+y-y=8-x 2x=8 x=4
Put this value of in equation (3), we get,
y=x=4
Therefore, the coordinates of B are (4,4).
Taking (2) and (3)
Let, the point of intersection of above two lines is C,
Subtract equation (2)from (3), we get,
x+y-x=8-3y y=8-3y 4y=8 y=2
Put this value of yin equation (1), we get ,
x=3(2)=6
So, the coordinates of C are (6,2).
Therefore, the coordinates of the triangle are (0,0),(4,4)and (6,2). Hence, correct option is 4.
