Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(-4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\vec \alpha = (\lambda - 2)\overrightarrow {\rm{a}} + \overrightarrow {\rm{b}} \) \(\vec{\beta}=(4 \lambda-2) \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}+3 \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}\) \(\bar{\alpha}\) and \(\bar{\beta}\) are collinear…
