- A51
- B45
- C47
- D49
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
-
For a system of 3 linear equations in 3 variables to have infinitely many solutions, the third equation must be a linear combination of the first two, and the system must be consistent.
So let
-
Compare coefficients of and :
Solve these:
From substitute into the first:
Then
-
Now compare the coefficient of :
-
Compare the constant terms:
-
Compute:
-
Therefore, the correct option is i.e. Option C.
-
Comparison with stored correct answer: Stored correct answer is C, which matches our result.
