If the trivial solution is the only solution of the system of equations $x-ky + z=0$ $kx + 3y-kz = 0$ $3x+y-z=0$, then the set of values of k, is |
$R- \{2\}$ $R-\{-3\}$ $\{2,3\}$ $R - \{2,-3\}$ |
$R - \{2,-3\}$ |
The given system of equations will have trivial solution only, if $\begin{vmatrix}1&-k&1\\k&3&-k\\3&1&-1\end{vmatrix}≠0$ $⇒-3+k+k(-k + 3k) + (k −9) ≠0$ $⇒2k^2 + 2k-12≠0$ $⇒k^2+k-6≠0$ $⇒k≠-3,2$ Hence, $k∈R - \{2,-3\}$. |
