The number of solutions of the system of equations 2x + y - z = 7, x - 3y + 2z = 1 and x + 4y - 3z = 5 is(a) 0 (b) 1(c) 2 (d) 3 |
Answer» Correct Option: (a) 0 Explanation: Given, 2x + y - z = 7 ...(i) x - 3y + 2z = 1 and x + 4y - 3z = 5 ...(iii) Multiplying (i) by 2 and then adding (i) and (ii), we get 5x - y = 15 ...(iv) Multiplying (i) by 3 and then subtracting (iii) from (i), we get 5x - y = 16 ...(v) Eqs. (iv) and (v) shows that they are parallel and so solution does not exist. |
