3. ∵ The y-intercept of L1 is 13.

∴ L1 and L2 cut the y-axis at the point (0, 13). 1A
∵ L2 is a horizontal line.
∴ The equation of L2 is y = 13. 1A

4. The equation of the straight line is

1M
y  0  2[ x  (3)]
y  2 x  6 1A

5. (a) The equation of L is

30
y  ( 3)  ( x  0) 1M
0  ( 4 )

(b) By substituting x = 8 and y = 3 into y   x  3 , we have
4
L.H.S. = 3
3
R.H.S.   (8)  3  3
4
∵ L.H.S. = R.H.S. 1A
3
∴ (8, 3) satisfies the equation y   x 3.
4
∴ L passes through Q(8, 3). 1A
