Answer:
If k=-1 , this pair of linear equations will have infinitely many solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Eq-1___ -3x+9y=14
Eq-2___1/3x+ky-14/9
Condition for infinitely many solutions: a1/a2 = b1/b1 =c1/c2
(Where a1,b1,c1 and a2,b2,c2 are the coefficients of x,y and the constant in eq 1 and 2)
>>-3/1/3=9/k
= -9=9/k
>>k= -9/9
Therefore, k= -1
