Question 6

The line $l_1\,$ passes through the point $(9, - 4)$ and has gradient $13\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}$ .

Find an equation for $l_1\,$ in the form $a x + b y + c = 0$ , where $a$ , $b\,$ and $c\,$ are integers.

[3]

The line $l_2\,$ passes through the origin $O\,$ and has gradient -2. The lines $l_1\,$ and $l_2\,$ intersect at the point $P$ . Calculate the coordinates of $P$ .

[4]

Given that $l_1\,$ crosses the $y$ -axis at the point $C$ , calculate the exact area of $△OCP\triangle OCP$ .
