Question

For what value of 't' the following pair of linear equations has a no solution?
2x-ty=5 and 3x+2y=11​

Answer 1

Answer:

Value of t = -4/3

Explanation:

compare 2x-ty-5 = 0 and

3x+2y-11=0 with a1x+b1y+c1=0 and a2x+b2y+c2=0 , we get

a1= 2 , b1 = -t , c1 = -5

a2 = 3 , b2 = 2 , c2 = -11

Now ,

a1/a2 = b1/b2 [ Given , no solution ]

=> 2/3 = (-t)/2

=> -4/3 = t

Therefore,

Value of t = -4/3
