For the system of linear equations \(x+y+z=6\) ; \(\alpha x+\beta y+7 z=3\) ; \(x+2 y+3 z=14\) which of the following is \(NOT\) true ?

  1. A If \(\alpha=\beta=7\), then the system has no solution
  2. B If \(\alpha=\beta\) and \(\alpha \neq 7\) then the system has a unique solution.
  3. C There is a unique point \((\alpha, \beta)\) on the line \(x +2 y +18=0\) for which the system has infinitely many solutions
  4. D For every point \((\alpha, \beta) \neq(7,7)\) on the line \(x-2 y+7=0\), the system has infinitely many solutions.

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) For every point \((\alpha, \beta) \neq(7,7)\) on the line \(x-2 y+7=0\), the system has infinitely many solutions.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

By equation \(1\) and \(3\) And \(\begin{array}{c}y+2 z=8 \\ y=8-2 z \\ x=-2+z\end{array}\) Now putting in equation \(2\) \(\alpha(z-2)+\beta(-2 z+8)+7 z=3\) \(\Rightarrow(\alpha-2 \beta+7) z=2 \alpha-8 \beta+3\) So equations have unique solution if \(\alpha-2 \beta+7 \neq 0\)…
