Question

Given a pair of linear equations x-3y + 5 =0 and ax - 3/4 y + 4 = 0 are inconsistent, then the value of a is (a. 4 (b. 1/4 (c. 3 (4. any real number.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey mate the answer is 1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x-3y+5=0 (1)

and ax-3/4y+4=0 (2)

If the pair of linear equations are inconsistent, then

a1/a2=b1/b2 not=c1/c2

1/a=12/3not=5/4

Now, 1/a=12/3

Therefore a=1/4

Hence the correct option is b).
