Consider the following two statements
. Any pair of consistent liner equations in two variables must have a unique solution.
. There do not exist two consecutive integers, the sum of whose squares is .
Then
- Aboth and are true
- Correct answerBboth and are false
- Cis true and is false
- Dis false and is true
Solution
() Any pair of consistent linear equation in two variables must have a unique solution. This statement is false. Consistent equation may have unique or infinite solution.
() There do not exists two consecutive integers the sum of whose square is . This statement is also false
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
