(B) Let $f(x, y) = 3x - 5y + a$. For the points $(1, 2)$ and $(3, 4)$ to lie on the same side of the line,$f(1, 2)$ and $f(3, 4)$ must have the same sign. $f(1, 2) = 3(1) - 5(2) + a = a - 7$ $f(3, 4) = 3(3) - 5(4) + a = a - 11$ Thus,$(a - 7)(a - 11) > 0$. Solving this inequality,we get $a 11$. Therefore,$a \in (-\infty, 7) \cup (11, \infty)$,which is $R - [7, 11]$.
