Solution

The correct option is B

a-i; b – ii: c- iii


Let’s convert A into Echelon form of

A = 11111λ1μ2

R3R3R1,R2R2R1 11100λ10μ11

R3R2 1110μ1100λ1

Let’s convert C into echelon form

C = 111211λ11μ23

R2R2R1, R3R3R1

111200λ110μ111

R2R3 11120μ11100λ11

When, μ=1, λ=1

Rank of A = 2, Rank of C = 3

No solutions possible

When, μ=2, λ=3

Rank of A = 3, Rank of C = 3 = Number of unknowns

unique solution

When, μ=1, λ=0

Rank of A = 2, Rank of C = 2

2 < Number of unknowns

Infinitie number of solutions.
