The value of for which the following system of linear equations
has infinitely many solutions, is:
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
We have,
For infinitely many solutions,
\left|A\right| = 0⇒ \left|\right| = 0⇒ 3 ( 2k + 15 ) + 1\left(k + 18\right) + 4\left(5 - 12\right) = 0⇒ 3 ( 2k + 15 ) + k + 18 - 28 = 0⇒ 7k + 35 = 0⇒ k = - 5
