The system of equation x−y+z=4,x−2y−2z=9,2x+y+αz=1x-y+z=4, x-2y-2z=9, 2x+y+\alpha z=1 has unique solution then value(/s) of α\alpha is (/are) (where R\mathbb{R} is set of real numbers)

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

A unique solution needs the coefficient determinant non-zero.

Δ=1(−2α+2)+1(α+4)+1(1+4)=11−α\Delta = 1(-2\alpha+2)+1(\alpha+4)+1(1+4)=11-\alpha.

So α≠11\alpha\neq 11, i.e. α∈R∖{11}\alpha\in\mathbb{R}\setminus\{11\}.
