Question:
[Section A]
The pair of linear equations $x + 2y + 5 = 0$ and $-3x - 6y + 1 = 0$ has:
(A) a unique solution
(B) exactly two solutions
(C) infinitely many solutions
(D) no solution
Step-by-Step Solution
Key Concept: $a_1/a_2 = b_1/b_2 <br>eq c_1/c_2 \Rightarrow -1/3 = -1/3 <br>eq 5/1$. Parallel lines.
Sol. (D) no solution. [1.0 Mark]
