pair of linear equations x + 3y -6=0 and x+ ky – 15 =0 has a unique solution if k is About the author Ariana
Given Equation ⇒x + 3y – 6 = 0 (i) ⇒x + ky – 15 = 0 (ii) Now compare With ⇒ax + by – c = 0 We get ⇒a₁ = 1 , b₁=3 and c₁ = -6 ⇒a₂ = 1 ,b₂ = k and c₂ = -15 For Unique Solution ⇒a₁/a₂ ≠b₁/b₂ ⇒1/1 ≠ 3/k ⇒k≠3 Answer ⇒k≠3 More Information For Unique Solution ⇒a₁/a₂ ≠b₁/b₂ For Infinite Solution ⇒a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂ For No Solution ⇒a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ ≠ c₁/c₂ Reply
Given Equation
⇒x + 3y – 6 = 0 (i)
⇒x + ky – 15 = 0 (ii)
Now compare With
⇒ax + by – c = 0
We get
⇒a₁ = 1 , b₁=3 and c₁ = -6
⇒a₂ = 1 ,b₂ = k and c₂ = -15
For Unique Solution
⇒a₁/a₂ ≠b₁/b₂
⇒1/1 ≠ 3/k
⇒k≠3
Answer
⇒k≠3
More Information
For Unique Solution
⇒a₁/a₂ ≠b₁/b₂
For Infinite Solution
⇒a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂
For No Solution
⇒a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ ≠ c₁/c₂
