Question

Find the value of k for which the given pair of linear equations has no solution.

4x+ky=5
8x +12y= -10
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the pair of linear equation has no solution.

Therefore,

a1/a2 = b1/b2

a1=4 and a2=8

b1=k and b2 =12

a1/a2 = b1/b2

4/8 = k/12

1/2 = k/12

2k = 12

k= 12/2

k = 6
