Options

  1. Aunique solution
  2. Binfinitely many solutions
  3. Cno solution
  4. Dtwo solutions

Correct answer

B. infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step solution

Given equations, x-y+2 z=43 x+y+4 z=6x+y+z=1 Let = | array ccc 1 & -1 & 2 3 & 1 & 4 1 & 1 & 1 array |=1(1-4)+1(3-4)+2(3-1)=-3-1+4=0 and ₁= | array ccc 4 & -1 & 2 6 & 1 & 4 1 & 1 & 1 array |=4(1-4)+1(6-4)+2(6-1)=-12+2+10=0 Now, =0 and ₁=0 These equations have infinitely many solutions.
