If the system of equations has infinitely many solutions, then the ordered pair () is equal to :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
We interpret the system as:
For the system to have infinitely many solutions, the third equation must be a linear combination of the first two, and the coefficient matrix must be dependent in a consistent way.
1. Write equations in row form
For infinitely many solutions, we need
for some constants .
2. Compare coefficients of and
From the -coefficients:
From the -coefficients:
Solve these:
From (1),
Substitute into (2):
Then
3. Compare coefficient of
Since
we get
Hence,
4. Compare constant terms
Also,
So,
5. Final answer
Therefore,
This matches Option D.
