10th Class Mathematics Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables

  • question_answer
    Assertion (A): For \[k=6,\] the system of linear equations \[x+2y+3=0\]and \[3x+ky+6=0\] is inconsistent.
    Reason (R):   The   system   of   linear  equations \[{{a}_{1}}x+{{b}_{1}}y+{{c}_{1}}=0\]and \[{{a}_{2}}x+{{b}_{2}}y+{{c}_{2}}=0\] is inconsistent if \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\frac{{{b}_{1}}}{{{b}_{2}}}=\frac{{{c}_{1}}}{{{c}_{2}}}\].

    A) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is the correct explanation of assertion (A).

    B) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true but reason (R) is not the correct explanation of assertion (A).

    C) Assertion (A) is true but reason (R) is false.

    D) Assertion (A) is false but reason (R) is true.

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] For inconsistent solution, we have
    \[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\frac{{{b}_{1}}}{{{b}_{2}}}\ne \frac{{{c}_{1}}}{{{c}_{2}}}\]
    So, assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.
