The line LL passes through the fixed point (2,5)(2,5) and a variable point (a,7a−1)(a,7a-1), where aa is a real parameter. a. (i) Obtain the equation of LL in terms of the parameter aa using the two given points. b. (ii) Determine the value(s) of aa for which LL is perpendicular to the line 3x+4y=63x + 4y = 6. c. (iii) For the value of aa found in part (ii), express the equation of LL in slope–intercept form and state both its slope and yy-intercept.
