Given system of equations is x+ky+3z=03x+ky−2z=02x+3y−4z=0 Since, system has non-trivial solution ⇒⇒∴132kk33−2−4=01(−4k+6)−k(−12+4)+3(9−2k)=04k+33−6k=0⇒k=233 Hence, statement - 1 is false. Statement- 2 is the property. It is a true statement.
Statement 1: If the system of equations x+k y+ 3 z=0,3 x+k y-2 z=0,2 x+3 y-4 z=0 has a nontrivial solution, then the value of k is 31 2. Statement 2:…
