JEE MAIN - Mathematics (2025 - 24th January Evening Shift - No. 8)

If the system of equations

$$ \begin{aligned} & x+2 y-3 z=2 \\ & 2 x+\lambda y+5 z=5 \\ & 14 x+3 y+\mu z=33 \end{aligned} $$

has infinitely many solutions, then $\lambda+\mu$ is equal to :
13
10
12
11

Explanation

$$\begin{aligned} &\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{rrr} 1 & 2 & -3 \\ 2 & \lambda & 5 \\ 14 & 3 & \mu \end{array}\right|=0, \lambda \mu+42 \lambda-4 \mu+107=0 \\ & \mathrm{D}_1=2 \lambda \mu+99 \lambda-10 \mu+255 \\ & \mathrm{D}_2=13-\mu \\ & D_3=5 \lambda+5 \\ & D_2=0 \Rightarrow \mu=13 \& D_3=0 \Rightarrow \lambda=-1 \end{aligned}\\ &\text { check & verify for these values } \mathrm{D} \& \mathrm{D}_2=0 \end{aligned}$$
