Question

find the value of k in the following linear equation in two variable which has infinite number of solution first minus 2 Y is equal to zero X + 5 Y is equal to zero​

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is as below

Step-by-step explanation:

(3k+1)x+3y−2=0

(k

+1)x+(k−2)y−5=0

This is of the form a

x+b

y+c

=0

a

x+b

y+c

=0,

where, a

=3k+1,b

=3,c

=−2

and a

=k

2

+1,b

=k−2,c

=−5

For no solution, we must have

The given system of equations will have no solution, if

k

+1

3k+1

=

k−2



=

−5

−2

⇒

k

+1

3k+1

=

k−2

and

k−2



=

Now,

k

2

+1

3k+1

=

k−2

3

⇒(3k+1)(k−2)=3(k

2

+1)

⇒3k

2

−5k−2=3k

2

+3

⇒−5k−2=3

⇒−5k=5

⇒k=−1

Clearly,

k−2



=

5

2

for k=−1

Hence, the given system of equations will have no solution for k=−1.
