If the system of linear equations

x+ky+3z=0
3x+ky-2z=0
2x+4y-3z=0

has a non-zero solution x, y, z, then xzy2 is equal to:

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

1k33k-224-3=0

-3k+8-3-3k-12+2-5k=0

-4k+44=0k=11

x+11y+3z=0   ...1

3x+11y-2z=0   ...2

2x+4y-3z=0   ...3

On solving equations1 & 2, we get

2x-5z=0

x=5z2

Put it in equation3, we get

2z+4y=0

z=-2y

xzy2=-2y×-5yy2=10
