The correct option is:
- A
- Correct answerB
- C
- D
Solution
Given,
Now equation can be re-written as
Now given ,
So, let
Now, equation will be
Now from equation we get,
Option I: If
And eq. and eq. represents non-parallel planes eq. and eq. represents same plane
Infinitely many solutions
Now finding solution by taking so from equation we get,
and
So, is not valid for any value of rest are valid.
So, option (i)
Option II:
So, no solution
Option (ii)
Option (iii): If then
So, no solution
Option (iii)
Now option (iv): If then
So, infinitely many solutions
Option (iv) {similar to option (i)}
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
