Let `alpha, lambda , mu in R`.Consider the system of linear equations
`alphax+2y=lambda`
`3x-2y=mu`
Which of the following statement(s) is (are) correct ?

A

(a) If a = -3, then the system has infinitely many solutions for all value of `lambda and mu`.

B

If `a ne -3`, then the system has a unique solution fopor all values of `lambda and mu`.

C

If `lambda+u=0`, then the system has infinitely many solutions for a = -3`.

D

If `lambda +mu ne 0`, then the system has no solutions for a = -3.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

If a = -3, then the two equations in the given system represent parallel lines for `-lambda ne mu i.e., lambda+mu ne 0` and so the system has no solution. So, option (d) is correct.
If a = -3 and `lambda+mu=0 i.e., -lambda=mu`, then the two lines given by the above system are coincident and hence the system has infinitely many solutions. So, option (c) is correct for all values of `lambda and mu`.
If `a ne -3`, then the two lines given in the system are not parallel i.e.,they are intersecting and hence the ststem has a unique solutions. So, option (b) is correct.
Clearly, option(a) incorrect.
