The correct Answer is:
To find the value of \( m \) for which the system of equations has a unique solution, we need to analyze the given equations: 1. The first equation is: \[ x + 2y = 3 \] 2. The second equation can be rewritten as: \[ 5x + my + 7 = 0 \implies 5x + my = -7 \] Now, we can express the system of equations in the standard form: - \( a_1x + b_1y + c_1 = 0 \) - \( a_2x + b_2y + c_2 = 0 \) From the first equation, we can rewrite it as: \[ x + 2y - 3 = 0 \implies a_1 = 1, b_1 = 2, c_1 = -3 \] From the second equation, we have: \[ 5x + my + 7 = 0 \implies a_2 = 5, b_2 = m, c_2 = 7 \] For the system of equations to have a unique solution, the ratio of the coefficients must not be equal: \[ \frac{a_1}{a_2} \neq \frac{b_1}{b_2} \neq \frac{c_1}{c_2} \] Calculating the ratios: 1. \( \frac{a_1}{a_2} = \frac{1}{5} \) 2. \( \frac{b_1}{b_2} = \frac{2}{m} \) 3. \( \frac{c_1}{c_2} = \frac{-3}{7} \) Setting up the inequalities based on the conditions for a unique solution: 1. \( \frac{1}{5} \neq \frac{2}{m} \) 2. \( \frac{2}{m} \neq \frac{-3}{7} \) ### Step 1: Solve \( \frac{1}{5} \neq \frac{2}{m} \) Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 1 \cdot m \neq 2 \cdot 5 \implies m \neq 10 \] ### Step 2: Solve \( \frac{2}{m} \neq \frac{-3}{7} \) Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 2 \cdot 7 \neq -3 \cdot m \implies 14 \neq -3m \implies m \neq -\frac{14}{3} \] ### Conclusion The values of \( m \) for which the system of equations has a unique solution are: \[ m \neq 10 \quad \text{and} \quad m \neq -\frac{14}{3} \]
