Top Cramer's Rule MCQ Objective Questions
Cramer's Rule Question 1:
2x – 3y = 0 and 2x + αy = 0
For what value of α the system has infinitely many solution.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cramer's Rule Question 1 Detailed Solution
Concept:
The system of equations A X = 0 is said to be homogenous system of equations, then
If |A| ≠ 0, then its solution X = 0, is called trivial solution.
If |A| = 0. Then A X = 0 has a non-trivial solution which means the system will have infinitely many solutions.
Calculation:
Given: 2x – 3y = 0 and 2x + αy = 0
These equations can be written as: A X = B where \(A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 2&{ - 3}\\ 2&\alpha \end{array}} \right],\;X = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} x\\ y \end{array}} \right]\;and\;B = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 0\\ 0 \end{array}} \right]\)
As we know that, the given system is a homogenous system of equation. So, in order to say that the system has infinitely many solutions: |A| = 0.
⇒ |A| = 2α + 6 = 0 ⇒ α = -3.
Cramer's Rule Question 2:
The system of equations
x + y + z = 6,
x + 2y + 5z = 9,
x + 5y + λz = µ,
has no solution if
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cramer's Rule Question 2 Detailed Solution
Calculation
\(D=\left|\begin{array}{lll} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 2 & 5 \\ 1 & 5 & λ \end{array}\right|=0\)
⇒ λ = 17
\(D_{z}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} 1 & 1 & 6 \\ 1 & 2 & 9 \\ 1 & 5 & μ \end{array}\right| ≠ 0\)
⇒ μ ≠ 18
Hence option 1 is correct
Cramer's Rule Question 3:
Consider the system of equations: x + y + z = 3, x – y + 2z = 6 and x + y + α z = β
For what value of α and β the system has infinitely many solutions.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cramer's Rule Question 3 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Let us consider a system of equations in three variables:
a1 × x + b1 × y + c1 × z = d1
a2 × x + b2 × y + c2 × z = d2
a3 × x + b3 × y + c3 × z = d3
Then, \({\rm{\Delta }} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{b_1}}&{{c_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{b_2}}&{{c_2}}\\ {{a_3}}&{{b_3}}&{{c_3}} \end{array}} \right|,\;\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_1} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{d_1}}&{{b_1}}&{{c_1}}\\ {{d_2}}&{{b_2}}&{{c_2}}\\ {{d_3}}&{{b_3}}&{{c_3}} \end{array}} \right|,\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_2} = \;\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{d_1}}&{{c_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{d_2}}&{{c_2}}\\ {{a_3}}&{{d_3}}&{{c_3}} \end{array}} \right|\;and\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_3} = \;\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{b_1}}&{{d_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{b_2}}&{{d_2}}\\ {{a_3}}&{{b_3}}&{{d_3}} \end{array}} \right|\)
By cramer’s rule:
I. If Δ ≠ 0, then the system of equation has unique solution and it is given by: \(x = \frac{{{{\rm{\Delta }}_1}}}{{\rm{\Delta }}},\;y = \frac{{{{\rm{\Delta }}_2}}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}\;and\;z = \frac{{{{\rm{\Delta }}_3}}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}\)
II. If Δ = 0 and atleast one of the determinants Δ, Δ1, Δ2 and Δ3 is non-zero, then the given system is inconsistent.
III. If Δ = 0 and Δ1 = Δ2 = Δ3 = 0, then the system is consistent and has infinitely many solutions.
Calculation:
Given: x + y + z = 3, x – y + 2z = 6 and x + y + α z = β.
As we know that,
\({\rm{\Delta }} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{b_1}}&{{c_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{b_2}}&{{c_2}}\\ {{a_3}}&{{b_3}}&{{c_3}} \end{array}} \right|,\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_1} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{d_1}}&{{b_1}}&{{c_1}}\\ {{d_2}}&{{b_2}}&{{c_2}}\\ {{d_3}}&{{b_3}}&{{c_3}} \end{array}} \right|,\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_2} = \;\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{d_1}}&{{c_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{d_2}}&{{c_2}}\\ {{a_3}}&{{d_3}}&{{c_3}} \end{array}} \right|\;and\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_3} = \;\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{b_1}}&{{d_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{b_2}}&{{d_2}}\\ {{a_3}}&{{b_3}}&{{d_3}} \end{array}} \right|\)
\( \Rightarrow {\rm{\Delta }} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&1&1\\ 1&{ - 1}&2\\ 1&1&\alpha \end{array}} \right|,\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_1} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 3&1&1\\ 6&{ - 1}&2\\ \beta &1&\alpha \end{array}} \right|,\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_2} = \;\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&3&1\\ 1&6&2\\ 1&\beta &\alpha \end{array}} \right|\;and\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_3} = \;\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&1&3\\ 1&{ - 1}&6\\ 1&1&\beta \end{array}} \right|$\)
⇒ Δ = 2 – 2α, Δ1 = 3β – 9α, Δ2 = 3α - β and Δ3 = 6 – 2β.
As we know that, for the given system of equation to have infinitely many solutions according to cramer’s rule: Δ = 0 and Δ1 = Δ2 = Δ3 = 0
⇒ Δ = 2 – 2α = 0 ⇒ α = 1.
For α = 1 , we have: Δ1 = 3β – 9, Δ2 = 3 – β and Δ3 = 6 – 2β
So, in order to have infinitely many solutions, Δ1 = Δ2 = Δ3 = 0.
⇒ β = 3.
Cramer's Rule Question 4:
Find the value of α and β such the system of equations: 4x + y = α and βx + 2y = 3 has no solution.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cramer's Rule Question 4 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Let us consider a system of equations in two variables:
a1 × x + b1 × y = c1
a2 × x + b2 × y = c2
Then, \({\rm{\Delta }} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{b_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{b_2}} \end{array}} \right|,\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_1} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{c_1}}&{{b_1}}\\ {{c_2}}&{{b_2}} \end{array}} \right|\;and\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_2} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_1}}&{{c_1}}\\ {{a_2}}&{{c_2}} \end{array}} \right|\)
By Cramer's rule, the solution of a system of the equation has a unique solution if Δ ≠ 0 and the solution is given by: \(x = \frac{{{{\rm{\Delta }}_1}}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}\;and\;y = \frac{{{{\rm{\Delta }}_2}}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}\)
By cramer’s rule:
I. If Δ ≠ 0, then the system of the equation has a unique solution and it is given by: \(x = \frac{{{{\rm{\Delta }}_1}}}{{\rm{\Delta }}},\;y = \frac{{{{\rm{\Delta }}_2}}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}\;and\;z = \frac{{{{\rm{\Delta }}_3}}}{{\rm{\Delta }}}\)
II. If Δ = 0 and at least one of the determinants Δ, Δ1, Δ2, and Δ3 is non-zero, then the given system is inconsistent.
III. If Δ = 0 and Δ1 = Δ2 = Δ3 = 0, then the system is consistent and has infinitely many solutions.
Calculation:
Given: 4x + y = α and βx + 2y = 3
As we know that, the given system of equation will be inconsistent if if Δ = 0 and at least one of the determinants Δ1 and Δ2 is non-zero.
\(⇒ {\rm{\Delta }} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 4&1\\ β &2 \end{array}} \right| = 8 - β \)
∵ The given system has no solution
⇒ Δ = 8 - β = 0 ⇒ β = 8.
\( \Rightarrow {{\rm{\Delta }}_1} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} α &1\\ 3&2 \end{array}} \right| = 2α - 3\;and\;{{\rm{\Delta }}_2} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 4&α \\ {8}&3 \end{array}} \right| = 12 - 8α \)
So, for α = 3 / 2, we can see that both Δ1 and Δ2 are zero.
for α = 3 / 2 and β = 8 the given system is consistent and has infinitely many solutions.
Hence, option 4 is correct.
Cramer's Rule Question 5:
The system of simultaneous linear equations x - 2y + 3z = 4, 3x + y - 2z = 7, 2x + 3y + z = 6 has
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cramer's Rule Question 5 Detailed Solution
Calculation
Given:
The system of simultaneous linear equations:
\(x - 2y + 3z = 4\)
\(3x + y - 2z = 7\)
\(2x + 3y + z = 6\)
\(D = \begin{vmatrix} 1 & -2 & 3 \\ 3 & 1 & -2 \\ 2 & 3 & 1 \end{vmatrix}\)
⇒ \(D = 1(1+6) - (-2)(3+4) + 3(9-2)\)
⇒ \(D = 7 + 14 + 21 = 42\)
Since \(D \neq 0\), the system has a unique solution.
\(D_z = \begin{vmatrix} 1 & -2 & 4 \\ 3 & 1 & 7 \\ 2 & 3 & 6 \end{vmatrix}\)
⇒ \(D_z = 1(6-21) - (-2)(18-14) + 4(9-2)\)
⇒ \(D_z = -15 + 8 + 28 = 21\)
\(z = \frac{D_z}{D} = \frac{21}{42} = \frac{1}{2}\)
Thus, we have a unique solution with \(z = \frac{1}{2}\).
Hence option 4 is correct
Cramer's Rule Question 6:
The value of \(a\) for which the system of equations
\(a^3x+(a+1)^3y+(a+2)^3z=0\)
\(ax+(a+1)y+(a+2)z=0\)
\(x+y+z=0\)
has a non-zero solution is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cramer's Rule Question 6 Detailed Solution
Calculation
For non-zero solution,
\(\begin{vmatrix}a^3&(a+1)^3 &(a+2)^3 \\a &(a+1)&(a+2)\\1&1&1 \end{vmatrix}=0\)
\(\Rightarrow \begin{vmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ a & (a+1) & (a+2) \\ a^{ 3 } & (a+1)^{ 3 } & (a+2)^{ 3 } \end{vmatrix}=0\)
Since \(\begin{vmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ x& y & z \\ x^{ 3 } & y^{ 3 } & z^{ 3 } \end{vmatrix}=\)(x−y)(y−z)(z−x)(x+y+z)
\(\Rightarrow -(a-a-1)(a+1-a-2)(a+2-a)\times (a+a+1+a+2)=0\)
\(\Rightarrow -2(3a+3)=0\)
\(\Rightarrow a=-1\)
Hence option 3 is correct
