A) \[-\frac{5}{4}\]
B) \[\frac{2}{5}\]
C) \[\frac{15}{4}\]
D) \[\frac{3}{2}\]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Condition for parallel lines is |
\[\frac{{{a}_{1}}}{{{a}_{2}}}=\frac{{{b}_{1}}}{{{b}_{2}}}\ne \frac{{{c}_{1}}}{{{c}_{2}}}\] (i) |
Given lines, \[3x+2ky-2=0\] |
and \[2x+5y-1=0\] |
Here, \[{{a}_{1}}=3,\,{{b}_{1}}=2k,\,{{c}_{1}}=-2\] |
and \[{{a}_{2}}=2,\,{{b}_{2}}=5,\,{{c}_{2}}=-1\] |
From Eq. (i), \[\frac{3}{2}=\frac{2k}{5}\] |
\[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,k=\frac{15}{4}\] |
