The value of λ. for which the lines 3x + 4y = 5, 2x + 3y = 4and λx + 4y = 6 meet at a point, is :

  • 2

  • 1

  • 4

  • 3


A.

2

The given lines are

      3x + 4y = 5     ...(i)

      2x + 3y = 4    ...(ii)

and λx + 4y = 6    ...(iii)

on solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get

x = - 1 and y = 2

All lines meet at a point, therefore the above point satisfies the Eq. (iii)

 - λ + 8 = 6             λ = 2
