If the system of equations x+2y+3z=34x+3y-4z=4 and 8x+4y-λz=9+μ has infinitely many solutions, then the ordered pair λ,μ is equal to

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Given,

The system of equations 

x+2y+3z=3 ......1

4x+3y-4z=4 .........2

8x+4y-λz=9+μ .....3

Now using the operation, equation 1×4-2 we get,

5y+16z=8 ........4

Now using the operation, equation 2×2-3 we get,

2y+λ-8z=-1-μ ........5

Now using the operation, equation 4×2-3×5 we get,

72-5λz=21+5μ

Now given system of equation has infinitely many solutions, so making coefficient of z to be zero and equating 21+5μ with zero we get,

72-5λ=0λ=725 and 21+5μ=0μ=-215

Hence, the ordered pair λ,μ is equal to 725,-215.
