If the system of equations 2x + y - z = 5 2x - 5y + = μ x + 2y - 5z...
If the system of equations
has infinitely many solutions, then is equal to
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
Given system of equations.
For infinite solution
⇒ \Delta = \left|\begin{cases}2 & 1 & - 1 \\ 2 & - 5 & \lambda \\ 1 & 2 & - 5\end{cases}\right| = 0
⇒ {\Delta}_{3} = \left|\begin{cases}5 & 2 & 1 \\ \mu & 2 & - 5 \\ 7 & 1 & 2\end{cases}\right| = 0
Now
Hence this is the correct option.
