IfG3,-5,ris centroid of triangleABCwhere,A7,-8,1,Bp,q,5andCq+1,5p,0are vertices of a triangle then values ofp,q,rare respectively ________

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

GivenA7,-8,1,Bp,q,5,Cq+1,5p,0
And centroid, of∆ABCisG3,-5,r
then, p+q+8=9 ⇒p+q=1… (1)
and5p+q-8=-15 ⇒ 5p+q=-7… (2)
and1+5=3r⇒r=2
Solving equation (1) and (2) we getp=–2andq=3
