JEE MAIN - Mathematics (2021 - 20th July Evening Shift - No. 13)

The value of k $$\in$$R, for which the following system of linear equations

3x $$-$$ y + 4z = 3,

x + 2y $$-$$ 3z = $$-$$2

6x + 5y + kz = $$-$$3,

has infinitely many solutions, is :
3
$$-$$5
5
$$-$$3

Explanation

$$\left| {\matrix{ 3 & { - 1} & 4 \cr 1 & 2 & { - 3} \cr 6 & 5 & k \cr } } \right| = 0$$

$$\Rightarrow$$ 3(2k + 15) + K + 18 $$-$$ 28 = 0

$$\Rightarrow$$ 7k + 35 = 0

$$\Rightarrow$$ k = $$-$$ 5
