Q.

Let S be the set of values of λ, for which the system of equations

6λx-3y+3z=4λ2,

2x+6λy+4z=1,

3x+2y+3λz=λ has no solution. Then 12λS|λ| is equal to ___________ .              [2023]


Ans.

(24)

For no solution, Δ=0

|6λ-3326λ4323λ|=0

6λ(18λ2-8)+3(6λ-12)+3(4-18λ)=0

18λ3-14λ-4=0λ=1,-13,-23

For each λ,  Δ1=|6λ-34λ226λ132λ|0

Then, 12λS|λ|=12(1+13+23)=24
