  • Question
  • The system of equations 3x + y - 4 = 0 and 6x + 2y - 8 = 0 has


  • Options
  • A. a unique solution x = 1 , y = 1
  • B. a unique solution x = 0, y = 4
  • C. no solution
  • D. infinite solutions

  • Correct Answer
  • infinite solutions 

    Explanation

    Given equations of system
    3x + y = 4 ...(i)
    x + 2y = 8 ...(ii)
    Here, a1 = 3 , b2 = 2 and c2 = B
    ? a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2 = 1/2
    So, the system of equations has infinite solutions, because it represents a parallel line.
