Detailed Solution

The given equations are 2x3y+6=0  and 4x+5y+2=0  .
Comparing the given equations with standard linear equations a 1 x+ b 1 y+ c 1 =0   and a 2 x+ b 2 y+ c 2 =0   we get the following values.
a 1 =2, b 1 =3, c 1 =6, a 2 =4, b 2 =5, c 2 =2  
Solving a 1 a 2   for the given expressions,
a 1 a 2 = 2 4 a 1 a 2 = 1 2  
Solving b 1 b 2   for the given expressions,
b 1 b 2 = 3 5  
Solve c 1 c 2   for the given expressions,
c 1 c 2 = 6 2 c 1 c 2 = 3 1  
Since a 1 a 2 b 1 b 2  .
Thus, the given lines will have a unique solution and the lines intersect at a point.
Therefore, the correct option is 2.
