    For what value of K, the system of equations\[x+y+z=6,\,\,x+2y+3z=10\],\[x+2y+\lambda z=10\]is consistent?

    A) \[1\]                                     

    B) \[2\]

    C) \[-1\]                                    

    D) \[3\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Key Idea: The system of equations\[{{a}_{1}}x+{{b}_{1}}y+{{c}_{1}}z={{d}_{1}},\]\[{{a}_{2}}x+{{b}_{2}}y+{{c}_{2}}z={{d}_{2}}\]\[{{a}_{3}}x+{{b}_{3}}y+{{c}_{3}}z={{d}_{3}}\]are consistent, if                 \[\left| \begin{matrix}    {{a}_{1}} & {{b}_{1}} & {{c}_{1}}  \\    {{a}_{2}} & {{b}_{2}} & {{c}_{2}}  \\    {{a}_{3}} & {{b}_{3}} & {{c}_{3}}  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\] The given system of equations\[x+y+z=6,\,\,x+2y+3z=10\],\[x+2y+\lambda z=10\]are consistent, if                 \[\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & 1 & 1  \\    1 & 2 & 3  \\    1 & 2 & \lambda   \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[1(2\lambda -6)-1(\lambda -3)+1(2-2)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[\lambda -3=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]                                     \[\lambda =3\]
