Given : , the system of equations Px + 3y = 1, 12x + Py = 2 has no solution.
To Find : value of P
Solution:
a₁x+ b₁y=c₁
a₂x+b₂y=c₂
Consistent
if a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂ ( unique solution)
a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂ ( infinite solution )
Inconsistent
if a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ ≠ c₁/c₂ ( No solution)
Px + 3y = 1,
12x + Py = 2
=> P/12 = 3/P ≠ 1/2
P/12 = 3/P
=> P² = 36
=> P = ± 6
case 1
P = 6
6/12 = 3/6 = 1/2 infinite solution
case 1
P = -6
-6/12 = 3/-6 ≠1/2 no solution
value of P is - 6
the system of equations Px + 3y = 1, 12x + Py = 2 has no solution.
