Question

Find for what value of ‘a’, the following pair of linear equations has infinitely many

solutions? 2x + 5y = 8; ax + (3a - 2)y = 4a​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if the equation is in the form of ax+by+c=0

if there are two in form given above

a1/a2=b1/b2

given

2x+5y=8

a-4*x+3a-2*y=0

put in the form of a1/a2=b1/b2

2/a-4=5/3a-2

2*3a-2=5*a-4

6a-4=5a-20

a=-16
