**Solution:**
226
213
227
-
1.**Rewrite bird's path:**
228
-
\$ 2y - 6x = 6 \implies y = 3x + 3 \$
229
-
2.**Equation of aeroplane's path:**
230
-
Slope = 2, passes through (4, 8):
231
-
\$ y - 8 = 2(x - 4) \implies y = 2x + 0 \$
232
-
3.**Find intersection:**
233
-
Set \$ y \$ equal:
234
-
\$ 3x + 3 = 2x \implies x = -3 \$
235
-
Substitute \$ x = -3 \$ into \$ y = 2x \$:
236
-
\$ y = 2 \times -3 = -6 \$
237
-
4.**Sum:**
238
-
\$ \alpha + \beta = -3 + (-6) = \boxed{-9} \$ ✅

## Step-by-Step Solution: Collision Point of Bird and Aeroplane ✈️🐦
215
+
216
+
Let's find the collision point of the bird and the aeroplane, and compute \$ \alpha + \beta \$ where \$ (\alpha, \beta) \$ is their intersection.
217
+
218
+
### 1️⃣ **Rewrite the Bird's Path in Slope-Intercept Form**
219
+
220
+
The bird's path is given by:
221
+
222
+
$$
223
+
2y - 6x = 6
224
+
$$
225
+
226
+
- Bring all terms involving \$ y \$ to one side:
227
+
228
+
$$
229
+
2y = 6x + 6
230
+
$$
231
+
232
+
- Divide both sides by 2:
233
+
234
+
$$
235
+
y = 3x + 3
236
+
$$
237
+
238
+
So, the bird flies along the line \$ y = 3x + 3 \$.
239
+
240
+
### 2️⃣ **Find the Equation of the Aeroplane's Path**
241
+
242
+
The aeroplane's path:
243
+
244
+
- Slope (\$ m \$) = 2
245
+
- Passes through point \$ (4, 8) \$
246
+
247
+
Use the point-slope form:
248
+
249
+
$$
250
+
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
251
+
$$
252
+
253
+
$$
254
+
y - 8 = 2(x - 4)
255
+
$$
256
+
257
+
- Expand:
258
+
259
+
$$
260
+
y - 8 = 2x - 8
261
+
$$
262
+
263
+
- Add 8 to both sides:
264
+
265
+
$$
266
+
y = 2x
267
+
$$
268
+
269
+
So, the aeroplane flies along the line \$ y = 2x \$.
270
+
271
+
### 3️⃣ **Find the Intersection Point (Collision Point)**
272
+
273
+
Set the two equations equal to each other:
274
+
275
+
- Bird: \$ y = 3x + 3 \$
276
+
- Aeroplane: \$ y = 2x \$
277
+
278
+
So,
279
+
280
+
$$
281
+
3x + 3 = 2x
282
+
$$
283
+
284
+
$$
285
+
3x - 2x = -3
286
+
$$
287
+
288
+
$$
289
+
x = -3
290
+
$$
291
+
292
+
Now substitute \$ x = -3 \$ into either equation to find \$ y \$:
293
+
294
+
Using \$ y = 2x \$:
295
+
296
+
$$
297
+
y = 2 \times (-3) = -6
298
+
$$
299
+
300
+
So, the collision point is \$ (\alpha, \beta) = (-3, -6) \$.
301
+
302
+
### 4️⃣ **Calculate \$ \alpha + \beta \$**
303
+
304
+
$$
305
+
\alpha + \beta = -3 + (-6) = -9
306
+
$$
307
+
308
+
## 🏁 **Final Answer**
309
+
310
+
> The value of \$ \alpha + \beta \$ at the collision point is:
311
+
312
+
> $$
313
+
> \boxed{-9}
314
+
> $$
315
+
316
+
$$
