  1. For what value of a, if any, will the following system of equation in x, y and z have a solution?
    2x + 3y = 4
    x + y + z = 4
    x + 2y – z = a
    1. any real number
    2. 0
    3. 1
    4. There is no such value
Correct Option: B

Augmented matrix is

R1 → R1 – 2R2
R3 → R3 – R2

R1 → R1 – R3

will have solution if a = 0
as Rank of [A] = Rank of Augmented [A]
