Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
Let 3x4y=7......(1)
6x8y=k......(2)
If k=14 in equation (2) 6x8y=14
Now, (2)÷23x4y=7......(3)
Therefore, the lines represented by (1) and (3) shows that the lines are coincident and there are infinitely many solutions.
Hence, the Assertion is correct.
Clearly, the Reason is correct.
Since both the Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
The correct answer is B.
