The following system of equations 5 x - 7 y + 3 z = 3 , 5 x + y + 3 z = 7 and 5 x + 3 y + 2 z = 5 is
Options
- AConsistent with trivial solution
- BConsistent with a unique non trivial solution
- CConsistent with infinite solutions
- DInconsistent with no solution
Correct answer
B. Consistent with a unique non trivial solution
Step-by-step solution
∆ = 5 - 7 3 5 1 3 5 3 2 = 5 - 7 + 7 - 5 + 3 10 = - 40 ≠ 0 Hence, system of equation has non trivial unique solution as 0 , 0 , 0 does not satisfy system of equation.
