Options

A. `a=1/3,bne7/3`
B. `a=1/3,b=7/3`
C. `ane1/3,b=7/3`
D. `ane1/3,bne7/3`

Answer

To find the values of \( a \) and \( b \) such that the system of equations has no solution, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Write down the system of equations
The system of equations is:
1. \( 2x + y + z = 3 \) (Equation 1)
2. \( x - y + z = -1 \) (Equation 2)
3. \( x + y + az = b \) (Equation 3)

### Step 2: Write the augmented matrix
We can represent the system in the form of an augmented matrix:
\[ \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 1 & 1 & | & 3 \\ 1 & -1 & 1 & | & -1 \\ 1 & 1 & a & | & b \end{bmatrix} \]

### Step 3: Find the determinant of the coefficient matrix
For the system to have no solution, the determinant of the coefficient matrix must be zero. The coefficient matrix is:
\[ \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & -1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & a \end{bmatrix} \]

Calculating the determinant:
\[ D = \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & -1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & a \end{vmatrix} \]

Using the determinant formula:
\[ D = 2 \begin{vmatrix} -1 & 1 \\ 1 & a \end{vmatrix} - 1 \begin{vmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 1 & a \end{vmatrix} + 1 \begin{vmatrix} 1 & -1 \\ 1 & 1 \end{vmatrix} \]

Calculating each of the 2x2 determinants:
1. \( \begin{vmatrix} -1 & 1 \\ 1 & a \end{vmatrix} = (-1)(a) - (1)(1) = -a - 1 \)

2. \( \begin{vmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 1 & a \end{vmatrix} = (1)(a) - (1)(1) = a - 1 \)

3. \( \begin{vmatrix} 1 & -1 \\ 1 & 1 \end{vmatrix} = (1)(1) - (-1)(1) = 1 + 1 = 2 \)

Substituting back into the determinant:
\[ D = 2(-a - 1) - 1(a - 1) + 2 \]
\[ = -2a - 2 - a + 1 + 2 \]
\[ = -3a + 1 \]

Setting the determinant to zero for no solution:
\[ -3a + 1 = 0 \]
\[ 3a = 1 \implies a = \frac{1}{3} \]

### Step 4: Find the value of \( b \)
To find \( b \), we need to ensure that the system has no solution. We can calculate the determinants of the augmented matrices.

1. For \( D_1 \):
\[ D_1 = \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 1 & 1 & | & 3 \\ 1 & -1 & 1 & | & -1 \\ 1 & 1 & a & | & b \end{vmatrix} \]

2. For \( D_2 \):
\[ D_2 = \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 1 & 1 & | & 3 \\ 1 & -1 & 1 & | & -1 \\ 1 & 1 & a & | & b \end{vmatrix} \]

Calculating \( D_1 \) and \( D_2 \) will give us conditions on \( b \).

After simplification, we find that \( b \) must not equal \( \frac{7}{3} \) for the system to maintain no solution.

### Final Answer
Thus, the values are:
\[ a = \frac{1}{3}, \quad b \neq \frac{7}{3} \]
