Q46 / 90 · JEE Main 2021 (25 Feb Shift 2) · Mathematics

The following system of linear equations
2x+3y+2z=9
3x+2y+2z=9
x-y+4z=8

  • A
    has infinitely many solutions
  • Correct answer
    B
    has a unique solution
  • C
    has a solution α,β,γ satisfying α+β2+γ3=12
  • D
    does not have any solution

Solution

2x+3y+2z=9   ...1

3x+2y+2 z=9  ...2

x-y+4z=8   ...3

1-2⇒-x+y=0⇒x-y=0

from 3 4z=8⇒z=2

from 1 2x+3y=5

⇒x=y=1

∴ system has unique solution.

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