Q49 / 90 · JEE Main 2024 (01 Feb Shift 1) · Mathematics

If the system of equations

2x+3y−z=5

x+αy+3z=−4

3x−y+βz=7

has infinitely many solutions, then 13αβ is equal to

  • A
    1110
  • Correct answer
    B
    1120
  • C
    1210
  • D
    1220

Solution

Given:

The system of equations,

2x+3y-z=5

x+αy+3z=-4

3x-y+βz=7 have many solutions,

So, △=△1=△2=△3

Now, finding △2=25-11-4337β=0

⇒2-4β-21-5β-9-17+12=0

⇒13β=-16

Now, finding △3=2351α-43-17=0

⇒14α-8-57-5-15α=0

⇒α=-70

Hence, the value of 13αβ=70×16=1120

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
