The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given system of homogeneous equations and the condition on the determinant of the coefficients. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Homogeneous System**: The given system of equations is: \[ a_1x + b_1y + c_1z = 0 \] \[ a_2x + b_2y + c_2z = 0 \] \[ a_3x + b_3y + c_3z = 0 \] This is a homogeneous system because all equations are equal to zero. **Hint**: A homogeneous system always has at least one solution, which is the trivial solution (x = 0, y = 0, z = 0). 2. **Determinant Condition**: We are given that the determinant of the coefficients of the system is zero: \[ |(a_1, b_1, c_1), (a_2, b_2, c_2), (a_3, b_3, c_3)| = 0 \] This means that the rows of the coefficient matrix are linearly dependent. **Hint**: A determinant of zero indicates that the equations do not represent three independent planes in space. 3. **Implication of Zero Determinant**: Since the determinant is zero, the system does not have a unique solution. Instead, it implies that there are either no solutions or infinitely many solutions. However, since this is a homogeneous system, it cannot have no solutions. **Hint**: In a homogeneous system, if the determinant is zero, it guarantees the existence of non-trivial solutions. 4. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the conclusion is that the system has infinitely many solutions. This is because the equations are dependent, and thus they intersect along a line or a plane in three-dimensional space. **Final Answer**: The system has infinitely many solutions.
