Question

The system of equation x + y + z = 2, 3x − y + 2z = 6 and 3x + y + z = −18 has

Options

  • a unique solution

  • no solution

  • an infinite number of solutions

  • zero solution as the only solution

MCQ

Solution

(a) a unique solution

The given system of equations can be written in matrix form as follows:
\[\begin{bmatrix}1 & 1 & 1 \\ 3 & - 1 & 2 \\ 3 & 1 & 1\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x \\ y \\ z\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}2 \\ 6 \\ - 18\end{bmatrix}\]
\[AX = B \]
Here, 
\[A = \begin{bmatrix}1 & 1 & 1 \\ 3 & - 1 & 2 \\ 3 & 1 & 1\end{bmatrix}, X = \begin{bmatrix}x \\ y \\ z\end{bmatrix}\text{ and }B = \begin{bmatrix}2 \\ 6 \\ - 18\end{bmatrix}\]
\[\left| A \right|=1 \left( - 1 - 2 \right) - 1\left( 3 - 6 \right) + 1\left( 3 + 3 \right)\]
\[ = - 3 + 3 + 6\]
\[ = 6\neq0\]
So, the given system of equations has a unique solution.

The management committee of a residential colony decided to award some of its members (say x) for honesty, some (say y) for helping others and some others (say z) for supervising the workers to keep the colony neat and clean. The sum of all the awardees is 12. Three times the sum of awardees for cooperation and supervision added to two times the number of awardees for honesty is 33.
