The number of real values of a for which the system of equations

x + 3y + 5z = αx

5x + y + 3z = αy

3x + 5y + z = αz

has infinite number of solutions is

  • 1

  • 2

  • 4

  • 6


A.

1

The system of equations are

x + 3y + 5z = αx

5x + y + 3z = αy

3x + 5y + z = αz

 1 - αx + 3y + 5z = 0      ...(i) 5x + 1 - αy + 3z = 0      ...(ii) 3x + 5y + 1 - αz = 0      ...(iii)

For infinite number of solutions, we must have

      1 - α3551 - α3351 - α = 0 9 - α359 - α1 - α39 - α51 - α = 0,C1  C1 + C2 + C3Taking (9 -  α) common from the first column, we get        9 - α13511 - α3151 - α = 0 9 - α1351- α - 2- 202- α - 4 = 0

            9 - αα + 22- 2α + 4 = 0     9 - αα2 + 6α + 8 + 4 = 0           α - 9α2 + 6α + 12 = 0 α = 9 is the only real value of α.

Thus, system of equations has infinite number of solutions is  1
