For the system of linear equations x + y + z = 6 + + 7z = 3 x + 2y...

For the system of linear equations
x+y+z=6x + y + z = 6

\alphax+\betay+7z=3\alphax + \betay + 7z = 3

x+2y+3z=14x + 2y + 3z = 14
which of the following is NOT true ?

Options

  1. AIf α=β=7\alpha = \beta = 7, then the system has no solution
  2. BIf α=β\alpha = \beta and α≠7\alpha \ne 7 then the system has a unique solution.
  3. CThere is a unique point (α,β)( \alpha, \beta ) on the line x+2y+18=0x + 2y + 18 = 0 for which the system has infinitely many solutions
  4. DFor every point (α,β)≠(7,7)( \alpha, \beta ) \ne ( 7, 7 ) on the line x−2y+7=0x - 2y + 7 = 0, the system has infinitely many solutions.

Correct answer

D. For every point (α,β)≠(7,7)( \alpha, \beta ) \ne ( 7, 7 ) on the line x−2y+7=0x - 2y + 7 = 0, the system has infinitely many solutions.

Step-by-step solution

Given system of linear equations:

x+y+z=6x + y + z = 6

\alphax+\betay+7z=3\alphax + \betay + 7z = 3

x+2y+3z=14x + 2y + 3z = 14

On taking determinant, we get

\left|A\right| = \left|{111αβ7123\begin{cases}1 & 1 & 1 \\ \alpha & \beta & 7 \\ 1 & 2 & 3\end{cases}\right|</p><p></p><p>= ( 3\beta - 14 ) - ( 3\alpha - 7 ) + ( 2\alpha - \beta )</p><p></p><p>= 2\beta - \alpha - 7</p><p>Here,if</p><p>Here, if\alpha = \beta = 7 then \left|A\right| = 0andthesystemhasnosolution.So,optionAiscorrect.</p><p>Ifand the system has no solution.
