Q. In the system of equations, cc is a constant. For which values of cc does the system have no solution?
  1. Identify Equations: Identify the system of equations. Let's assume the system is:\newlineax+by=c ax + by = c \newlinedx+ey=f dx + ey = f \newlinewhere a,b,c,d,e, a, b, c, d, e, and f f are constants, and k k is involved in one of these constants.
  2. No Solution Condition: Determine the condition for no solution. A system of linear equations has no solution if the lines are parallel. This happens when the ratios of the coefficients of x x and y y are equal, but the constant terms are not proportional:\newlinead=becf \frac{a}{d} = \frac{b}{e} \neq \frac{c}{f}
  3. Assume Coefficient Involvement: Assume k k affects one of the coefficients. Let's say k k is part of e e , so e=k e = k . Then the condition becomes:\newlinebk=ad \frac{b}{k} = \frac{a}{d} \newlineSolving for k k , we get:\newlinek=bda k = \frac{b \cdot d}{a}
