(5) The value of c for which the pair of equations cx- y = 2 and 6x -2y - 4 = 0
will have infinitely solution is
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
For no value of c the pair of equations will have infinitely many solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The pair of equation cx-y=2cx−y=2 and 6x-2y=36x−2y=3 will have infinitely many solution.
To find : The value of 'c'?
Solution :
Condition for infinitely many solutions is
\frac{a_1}{a_2}=\frac{b_1}{b_2}=\frac{c_1}{c_2}

Given lines are cx-y=2cx−y=2 and 6x-2y=36x−2y=3
So, a_1=c,b_1=-1,c_1=-2,a_2=6,b_2=-2,c_2=-3a

=−3
Substitute in the condition,
\frac{c}{6}=\frac{-1}{-2}=\frac{-2}{-3}

Solve,
c=3c=3
Take first and last,
\frac{c}{6}=\frac{2}{3}

Solve,
c=4c=4
Since, c has different values.
Hence, For no value of c the pair of equations will have infinitely many solutions.
