Consider the system of linear equations \(x+y+z=5, x+2 y+\lambda^2 z=9\) \(x+3 y+\lambda z=\mu\), where \(\lambda, \mu \in R\). Then, which of the following statement is NOT correct?

  1. A  System has infinite number of solution if \(\lambda=1\) and \(\mu=13\)
  2. B  System is inconsistent if \(\lambda=1\) and \(\mu \neq 13\)
  3. C System is consistent if \(\lambda \neq 1\) and \(\mu=13\)
  4. D System has unique solution if \(\lambda \neq 1\) and \(\mu \neq 13\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) System has unique solution if \(\lambda \neq 1\) and \(\mu \neq 13\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \left|\begin{array}{ccc}1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 2 & \lambda^2 \\ 1 & 3 & \lambda\end{array}\right|=0 \\ & \Rightarrow 2 \lambda^2-\lambda-1=0 \\ & \lambda=1,-\frac{1}{2} \\ & \left|\begin{array}{ccc}1 & 1 & 5 \\ 2 & \lambda^2 & 9 \\ 3 & \lambda &…
