The system of equations
\(\begin{aligned} & x-3 y-8 z=-10 \\ & 2 x+5 y+\lambda z=13 \\ & 3 x+y-4 z=0\end{aligned}\)
has infinite number of solutions if the value of \(\lambda\) is equal to:
- A 9
- B 5
- C any real number
- D 6
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 6
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \begin{vmatrix} 1 & -3 & -8 \\ 2 & 5 & \lambda \\ 3 & 1 & -4 \end{vmatrix} = 0 \) \( 1(5(-4) - \lambda(1)) - (-3)(2(-4) - \lambda(3)) + (-8)(2(1) - 5(3)) = 0 \) \( 1(-20 - \lambda) + 3(-8 - 3\lambda) - 8(2 - 15) = 0 \) \( -20 - \lambda - 24 - 9\lambda - 8(-13) = 0 \)…

Ethers with the general formula \(C _n H _{2 n+2} O\) and functional group C-O-C may be divided as symmetrical and unsymmetrical.
Lower symmetrical ether may be obtained by the dehydration of alcohols at low temperatures in the presence of protic acids,
such as \(H _2 SO _4\) and \(H _3 PO _4\) whereas at high temperature intramolecular dehydration takes place.
Formation of ether from primary alcohols is also accompanied by the formation of small amount of alkenes.
Due to the steric hinderance, secondary and tertiary alcohols undergo elimination reaction rather than substitution reaction yielding alkene as major product. Ethers can also be obtained by heating alkyl halides with sodium or potassium alkoxides.
Substituted Ethers (secondary & tertiary) can also be prepared using this method.
If primary halides are replaced with secondary and tertiary halides, alkenes are the major products. The compound with the lowest boiling point isCUET 2025 Hard - If \(A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & -5 \\ 4 & -7\end{array}\right]\), then \(A^{-1}\) is:CUET 2023 Medium
