The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to analyze the given system of equations and determine the conditions under which they have infinitely many solutions. ### Step 1: Understand the conditions for infinitely many solutions For the system of equations: 1. \( ax + by + c = 0 \) 2. \( bx + cy + a = 0 \) 3. \( cx + ay + b = 0 \) to have infinitely many solutions, the determinant of the coefficients must be zero. The coefficients of the system can be represented in a matrix form as follows: \[ \begin{vmatrix} a & b & c \\ b & c & a \\ c & a & b \end{vmatrix} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the determinant We need to compute the determinant of the matrix: \[ D = \begin{vmatrix} a & b & c \\ b & c & a \\ c & a & b \end{vmatrix} \] Using the determinant formula for a 3x3 matrix, we have: \[ D = a \begin{vmatrix} c & a \\ a & b \end{vmatrix} - b \begin{vmatrix} b & a \\ c & b \end{vmatrix} + c \begin{vmatrix} b & c \\ c & a \end{vmatrix} \] Calculating the minors: 1. \( \begin{vmatrix} c & a \\ a & b \end{vmatrix} = cb - a^2 \) 2. \( \begin{vmatrix} b & a \\ c & b \end{vmatrix} = bb - ac = b^2 - ac \) 3. \( \begin{vmatrix} b & c \\ c & a \end{vmatrix} = ba - c^2 \) Substituting back into the determinant: \[ D = a(cb - a^2) - b(b^2 - ac) + c(ba - c^2) \] ### Step 3: Simplify the determinant Expanding this gives: \[ D = acb - a^3 - b^3 + abc + abc - c^3 \] \[ D = 3abc - (a^3 + b^3 + c^3) \] ### Step 4: Set the determinant to zero For the system to have infinitely many solutions, we set \( D = 0 \): \[ 3abc - (a^3 + b^3 + c^3) = 0 \] ### Step 5: Analyze the second system of equations Now consider the second system of equations: 1. \( (b + c)x + (c + a)y + (a + b)z = 0 \) 2. \( (c + a)x + (a + b)y + (b + c)z = 0 \) 3. \( (a + b)x + (b + c)y + (c + a)z = 0 \) We can represent this system in matrix form as: \[ \begin{vmatrix} b+c & c+a & a+b \\ c+a & a+b & b+c \\ a+b & b+c & c+a \end{vmatrix} \] ### Step 6: Calculate the determinant of the new system Let’s denote this determinant as \( D' \). Using similar steps as before, we can find \( D' \). ### Step 7: Use the previous condition Since we know that \( a, b, c \) are such that \( abc = 0 \) (from the first system), we can conclude that the determinant \( D' \) will also equal zero. ### Conclusion Thus, since \( D' = 0 \), the second system of equations also has infinitely many solutions. ### Final Answer The system of equations has infinitely many solutions.

To solve the problem step by step, we need to analyze the given system of equations and determine the conditions under which they have infinitely many solutions. ### Step 1: Understand the conditions for infinitely many solutions For the system of equations: 1. \( ax + by + c = 0 \) 2. \( bx + cy + a = 0 \) 3. \( cx + ay + b = 0 \) ...
