If the system of linear equations,
x+y+z=6x + y + z = 6
x+2y+3z=10x + 2y + 3z = 10
3x+2y+\lambdaz=μ3x + 2y + \lambdaz = \mu
has more than two solutions, then μ−λ2\mu - {\lambda}^{2}, is equal to.

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

x+y+z=6...(1)<br/>x + y + z = 6 . . . \left(1\right)<br />x + 2y + 3z = 10 . . . \left(2\right)<br/><br />3x + 2y + \lambdaz = \mu \ldots \left(3\right)

From \left(1\right)\text{and }\left(2\right),<br />Ifz = 0 ⇒ x + y = 6 and x + 2y = 10,,⇒ y = 4, x = 2<br/>If<br />Ify = 0 ⇒ x + z = 6 and x + 3z = 10,,⇒ z = 2, x = 4</p><p>So,</p><p>So,3x + 2y + \lambdaz = \mu,mustpassthrough, must pass through( 2,4, 0 ) and ( 4,0, 2 ).</p><p>.</p><p>6 + 8 = \mu ⇒ \mu = 14<br/>And<br />And12 + 2\lambda = \mu ⇒ \lambda = 1</p><p>So,</p><p>So,\mu - {\lambda}^{2} = 14 - 1= 13</p></p>
