Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Solution of Linear Equations Question 1 Detailed Solution
Concept
Let the system of equations be,
a1x + b1y + c1z = d1
a2x + b2y + c2z = d2
a3x + b3y + c3z = d3
\(\Rightarrow \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{b_1}}&{{c_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{b_2}}&{{c_2}}\\ {{a_3}}&{{b_3}}&{{c_3}} \end{array}} \right]\;\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} x\\ y\\ z \end{array}} \right] = \;\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{d_1}}\\ {{d_2}}\\ {{d_3}} \end{array}} \right]\)⇒ AX = B
⇒ X = A - 1 B = \(\frac{{{\rm{adj\;}}\left( {\rm{A}} \right)}}{{\det {\rm{\;}}({\rm{A}})}}\;B\)
- If det (A) ≠ 0, the system is consistent having unique solution.
- If det (A) = 0 and (adj A). B = 0, system is consistent, with infinitely many solutions.
- If det (A) = 0 and (adj A). B ≠ 0, system is inconsistent (no solution)
If \(A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_{11}}}&{{a_{12}}}&{{a_{13}}}\\ {{a_{21}}}&{{a_{22}}}&{{a_{23}}}\\ {{a_{31}}}&{{a_{32}}}&{{a_{33}}} \end{array}} \right]\) then determinant of A is given by:
|A| = a11 × {(a22 × a33) - (a23 × a32)} - a12 × {(a21 × a33) - (a23 × a31)} + a13 × {(a21 × a32) - (a22 × a31)}
Calculation:
Given: The system of equations
x + 2y + 2z = 1
2x + 2y + 3z = 3 and
x - y + 3z = 5
So, A = \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&2& 2\\ 2&2&3\\ 1&{ - 1}&3 \end{array}} \right]\)
det (A) = |A| = 1 × {( 2 × 3) - ( 3 × -1)} - 2 × {(2 × 3) - (3 × 1)} + 2 × {(2 × - 1) - (2 × 1)}
⇒ |A| = 1(6 + 3) -2(6 - 3) + 2(-2 - 2)
⇒ |A| = 9 - 6 - 8 = -5
∴ |A| ≠ 0
∴ The system of linear is consistent with a unique solutionSolution of Linear Equations Question 2:
An ordered pair (α, β) for which the system of linear equations
(1 + α)x + βy + z = 2
αx + (1 + β)y + z = 3
αx + βy + 2z = 2 has a unique solution is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Solution of Linear Equations Question 2 Detailed Solution
CONCEPT:
- Since the constant terms for the given equations are non-zero so the values Δ1, Δ2, and Δ3 may be zero or may not be 0.
- For the unique solution, the value of the determinant of coefficients that means Δ should be non zero.
Δ ≠ 0
Where Δ is the determinant formed by the coefficient of the given homogeneous equation,
CALCULATION
Given:
(1 + α)x + βy + z = 0
αx + (1 + β)y + z = 0
αx + βy + 2z = 0
\(Δ =\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {1 + α }&β &1\\ α &{1 + α }&1\\ α &β &2 \end{array}} \right|\)
⇒ Δ = (α + β + 2)\(\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&β &1\\ 1&{1 + α }&1\\ 1&β &2 \end{array}} \right|\) [C1 → C1 + C2 + C3]
⇒ Δ = (α + β + 2)\(\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&β &1\\ 0&1&0\\ 0&0&1 \end{array}} \right|\) [R2 → R2 - R1 and R3 → R3 - R1]
⇒ Δ = (α + β + 2)
- For unique solution,
⇒ α + β + 2 ≠ 0
⇒ α + β ≠ -2.
- This condition is satisfied only for the interval (2, 4)
- So, the correct answer is option 3.
Solution of Linear Equations Question 3:
If 3x + 2y + z = 0, x + 4y + z = 0, 2x + y + 4z = 0 is a system of equations, then:
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Solution of Linear Equations Question 3 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Consider the system of equations,
a1x + b1y + c1z = 0,
a2x + b2y + c2z = 0
a3x + b3y + c3z = 0 which is linear homogeneous equations.
Every homogeneous system has either trivial solution or non trivial solution.
If Rank of Matrix = Total number of unknowns, the system possess trivial solution and
If Rank of Matrix < Total number of unknowns, the system possess non trivial solution
Calculations:
Given, system of equations
3x + 2y + z = 0,
x + 4y + z = 0,
2x + y + 4z = 0 which is linear homogeneous equations.
In matrix form , we can write
\(\begin{bmatrix} 3 &2 &1 \\ 1&4 &1 \\ 2 &1 & 4 \end{bmatrix}\)\(\begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{bmatrix}\) = \(\begin{bmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}\)
AX = B
Where A = \(\begin{bmatrix} 3 &2 &1 \\ 1&4 &1 \\ 2 &1 & 4 \end{bmatrix}\), X = \(\begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{bmatrix}\)and B = \(\begin{bmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}\)
Every homogeneous system has either trivial solution or non trivial solution.
If Rank of Matrix = Total number of unknowns, the system possess trivial solution and
If Rank of Matrix < Total number of unknowns, the system possess non trivial solution
Here, Rank of Matrix = 3
Total number of unknowns = 3
i.e. Rank of Matrix = Total number of unknowns
System has trivial solution.
i.e x = 0, y = 0, z = 0
If 3x + 2y + z = 0, x + 4y + z = 0, 2x + y + 4z = 0 is a system of equations, then: it has only the trivial solution x = 0, y = 0, z = 0.
Solution of Linear Equations Question 4:
The system of equations
2x + y - 3z = 5
3x - 2y + 2z = 5 and
5x - 3y - z = 16Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Solution of Linear Equations Question 4 Detailed Solution
Concept
Let the system of equations be,
a1x + b1y + c1z = d1
a2x + b2y + c2z = d2
a3x + b3y + c3z = d3
\(\Rightarrow \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{b_1}}&{{c_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{b_2}}&{{c_2}}\\ {{a_3}}&{{b_3}}&{{c_3}} \end{array}} \right]\;\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} x\\ y\\ z \end{array}} \right] = \;\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{d_1}}\\ {{d_2}}\\ {{d_3}} \end{array}} \right]\)⇒ AX = B
⇒ X = A - 1 B = \(\frac{{{\rm{adj\;}}\left( {\rm{A}} \right)}}{{\det {\rm{\;}}({\rm{A}})}}\;B\)
⇒ If det (A) ≠ 0, system is consistent having unique solution.
⇒ If det (A) = 0 and (adj A). B = 0, system is consistent, with infinitely many solutions.
⇒ If det (A) = 0 and (adj A). B ≠ 0, system is inconsistent (no solution)
If \(A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_{11}}}&{{a_{12}}}&{{a_{13}}}\\ {{a_{21}}}&{{a_{22}}}&{{a_{23}}}\\ {{a_{31}}}&{{a_{32}}}&{{a_{33}}} \end{array}} \right]\) then determinant of A is given by:
|A| = a11 × {(a22 × a33) - (a23 × a32)} - a12 × {(a21 × a33) - (a23 × a31)} + a13 × {(a21 × a32) - (a22 × a31)}
Calculation:
Given: The system of equations
2x + y - 3z = 5
3x - 2y + 2z = 5 and
5x - 3y - z = 16
So, A = \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 2&1&{ - 3}\\ 3&{ - 2}&2\\ 5&{ - 3}&{ - 1} \end{array}} \right]\)
det (A) = |A| = 2 × {( - 2 × - 1) - ( - 3 × 2)} - 1 × {(3 × - 1) - (2 × 5)} + ( - 3) × {(3 × - 3) - (5 × - 2)}
⇒ |A| = 2 × (2 + 6) - 1 × ( - 3 - 10) - 3 × ( - 9 + 10)
⇒ |A| = 16 + 13 - 3 = 26
∴ |A| ≠ 0
So, system is consistent having unique solution.Solution of Linear Equations Question 5:
The system of equations
αx + y + z = α - 1
x + αy + z = α -1
x + y + αz = α -1

Solution of Linear Equations Question 5 Detailed Solution
Concept
Let the system of equations be,
a1x + b1y + c1z = d1
a2x + b2y + c2z = d2
a3x + b3y + c3z = d3
\({\rm{\;}} ⇒ \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{{\rm{a}}_1}}&{{{\rm{b}}_1}}&{{{\rm{c}}_1}}\\ {{{\rm{a}}_2}}&{{{\rm{b}}_2}}&{{{\rm{c}}_2}}\\ {{{\rm{a}}_3}}&{{{\rm{b}}_3}}&{{{\rm{c}}_3}} \end{array}} \right]{\rm{\;}}\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\rm{x}}\\ {\rm{y}}\\ {\rm{z}} \end{array}} \right] = {\rm{\;}}\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{{\rm{d}}_1}}\\ {{{\rm{d}}_2}}\\ {{{\rm{d}}_3}} \end{array}} \right]\)
⇒ AX = B
⇒ X = A-1 B = \(\frac{{{\rm{adj\;}}\left( {\rm{A}} \right)}}{{\det {\rm{\;}}({\rm{A}})}}{\rm{\;B}}\)
⇒ If det (A) ≠ 0, system is consistent has unique solution.
⇒ If det (A) = 0 and (adj A). B = 0, system is consistent, with infinitely many solutions.
⇒ If det (A) = 0 and (adj A). B ≠ 0, system is inconsistent (no solution)
Calculation:
Given
For no solution or infinitely many solutions
\(⇒ \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} α &1&1\\ 1&α &1\\ 1&1&α \end{array}} \right|\) = 0
⇒ α = 1, α = -2
But for α = 1, clearly, there are infinitely many solutions as column matrix B will become zero matrices.
⇒ (adj A). B = O
For no solution,
When we put α = - 2 then matrix B will become a non zero column matrix with the same entries as -3
⇒ (adj A). B ≠ O
So, α = - 2 for no solution.
Solution of Linear Equations Question 6:
A system of Linear equations represented in matrix form AX = O, A is m x m matrix, has a non-zero solution if the determinant of A (i.e., det (A)) is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Solution of Linear Equations Question 6 Detailed Solution
Explanation:
For a matrix system AX = B of linear equations -
- It has a unique solution X = A-1B if A is a non-singular matrix or det(A) ≠ 0.
- If det(A) = 0 and adj(A)B = 0, then there are infinite many solutions.
- If det(A) = 0 and adj(A)B ≠ 0, then there are no solutions.
Also if B = 0, then the system is homogeneous.
- This homogeneous system has only trivial solution (x = y = z = 0) if the det(A) ≠ 0
- Otherwise, for det(A) = 0; this system is consistent with infinite many solutions.
Solution of Linear Equations Question 7:
If the system of equation x + 2y - 3z = 2, (k + 3) z = 3, (2k + 1) y + z = 2 is consistent, then K is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Solution of Linear Equations Question 7 Detailed Solution
Given:
x + 2y - 3z = 2
(k + 3)z = 3
(2k + 1)y + z = 2
Concept:
The given set of equations is consistent
Therefore \(\dfrac{a_1}{a_2} = \dfrac{b_1}{b_2} = \dfrac{c_1}{c_2}\)
Calculation:
\(\dfrac{0}{2k+1} = \dfrac{k+3}{1}\)
⇒ \(0 = 2k^2 + 6k + k + 3\)
⇒ \(0 = 2k^2 + 7k + 3\)
⇒ \(2k^2 + 7k + 3 = 0\)
\(\Delta = b^2 - 4ac\)
⇒ 49 - (4 × 2 × 3)
⇒ 49 - 24
⇒ 25 > 0
K \(=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} = \dfrac{-7 \pm \sqrt{25}}{2 \times 2}\)
⇒ K \(=\dfrac{-7 \pm 5}{4} = \dfrac{-7-5}{4} , \dfrac{-7+5}{4}\)
⇒ K \(=\dfrac{-12}{4}, \dfrac{-2}{4}\)
∴ K = -3, -1/2
Solution of Linear Equations Question 8:

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Solution of Linear Equations Question 8 Detailed Solution
Concept
Let the system of equations be,
a1x + b1y + c1z = d1
a2x + b2y + c2z = d2
a3x + b3y + c3z = d3
\({\rm{\;}} ⇒ \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{{\rm{a}}_1}}&{{{\rm{b}}_1}}&{{{\rm{c}}_1}}\\ {{{\rm{a}}_2}}&{{{\rm{b}}_2}}&{{{\rm{c}}_2}}\\ {{{\rm{a}}_3}}&{{{\rm{b}}_3}}&{{{\rm{c}}_3}} \end{array}} \right]{\rm{\;}}\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\rm{x}}\\ {\rm{y}}\\ {\rm{z}} \end{array}} \right] = {\rm{\;}}\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{{\rm{d}}_1}}\\ {{{\rm{d}}_2}}\\ {{{\rm{d}}_3}} \end{array}} \right]\)
⇒ AX = B
⇒ X = A-1 B = \(\frac{{{\rm{adj\;}}\left( {\rm{A}} \right)}}{{\det {\rm{\;}}({\rm{A}})}}{\rm{\;B}}\)
⇒ If det (A) ≠ 0, system is consistent having unique solution.
⇒ If det (A) = 0 and (adj A). B = 0, system is consistent, with infinitely many solutions.
⇒ If det (A) = 0 and (adj A). B ≠ 0, system is inconsistent (no solution)
Calculation:
Given: 2kx - 2y + 3z = 0, x + ky + 2z = 0, 2x + kz = 0
For the homogeneous system of equations,
⇒ (adj A). B = 0 for all value of k and the column matrix B is zero matrix.
So, for non trivial solution,
|A| = 0
⇒ 2k(k2) + 2(k - 4) + 3(-2k) = 0
⇒ k3 - 2k - 4 =0
⇒ (k - 2)(k2 + 2k + 2) = 0
∴ k = 2 (Real value).
Solution of Linear Equations Question 9:
The values of m, n, for which the system of equations
x + y + z = 4,
2x + 5y + 5z = 17,
x + 2y + mz = n
has infinitely many solutions, satisfy the equation :
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Solution of Linear Equations Question 9 Detailed Solution
Calculation:
Given, x + y + z = 4,
2x + 5y + 5z = 17,
x + 2y + mz = n
∴ D = \(\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 2 & 5 & 5 \\ 1 & 2 & \mathrm{~m} \end{array}\right|\) = 0
⇒ 1(5m - 10) - 1(2m - 5) + 1(4 - 5) = 2
⇒ m = 2
Also, Dz = \(\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 1 & 1 & 4 \\ 2 & 5 & 17 \\ 1 & 2 & n \end{array}\right|\) = 0
⇒ 1(5n - 34) - 1(2n - 17) + 4(4 - 5) = 0
⇒ n = 7
∴ m2 + n2 – mn = 22 + 42 – 14 = 4 + 49 – 14 = 39
∴ m and n satisfy the equation m2 + n2 – mn = 39.
The correct answer is Option 4.
Solution of Linear Equations Question 10:
The value of a for which the system of equations a3x + (a + 1)3y + (a + 2)3z = 0, ax + (a + 1)y + (a + 2)z = 0, x + y + z = 0, has a nonzero solution is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Solution of Linear Equations Question 10 Detailed Solution
Concept:
If the system of equations has non-zero solutions, then the determinant is zero.
Calculation:
The system will have a non-zero solution, if
Δ = \( \begin{vmatrix} a^3 & (a+1)^3 & (a+2)^3 \\[0.3em] a & a+1 & a+2 \\[0.3em] 1 & 1 & 1 \end{vmatrix}=0\)
C2 → C2 - C1
C3 → C3 - C1
⇒ Δ = \( \begin{vmatrix} a^3 & 3a^2+3a+1 & 6a^2+12a+8 \\[0.3em] a & 1 & 2 \\[0.3em] 1 & 0 & 0 \end{vmatrix}=0\)
[(a + 1)3 - a3 = a3 + 1 + 3(a + 1) - a3 = 3a2 + 3a + 1 and
(a + 2)3 - a3 = a3 + 8 + 3(a + 2) - a3 = 6a2 + 12a + 8]
Expanding along R3,
⇒ (6a2 + 6a + 2) - (6a2 + 12a + 8) = 0
⇒ -6a - 6 = 0
⇒ a = -1
∴ The value of a is -1.
