Question

The value(s) of m does the system of equations 3x + my = m and 2x – 5y = 20 has a solution satisfying the conditions x > 0, y > 0

  1. element of (0, infinity)    
  2. element of open parentheses – infinity comma – fraction numerator 15 over denominator 2 end fraction close parenthesesunion (30, infinity)    
  3. element of open parentheses – fraction numerator 15 over denominator 2 end fraction comma infinity close parentheses    
  4. None of these    

The correct answer is: m element of open parentheses – infinity comma – fraction numerator 15 over denominator 2 end fraction close parenthesesunion (30, infinity)


    By using Cramer’s rule, the solution of the system is
    x = fraction numerator capital delta subscript x end subscript over denominator capital delta end fraction, y = fraction numerator capital delta subscript y end subscript over denominator capital delta end fraction, where straight capital delta = open vertical bar table row 3 m row 2 cell negative 5 end cell end table close vertical bar
    = –(15 + 2m)
    straight capital deltax = open vertical bar table row m m row 20 cell negative 5 end cell end table close vertical bar = –25m, straight capital deltay = open vertical bar table row 3 m row 2 20 end table close vertical bar = 60 – 2m
    rightwards double arrow x = fraction numerator negative 25 m over denominator – left parenthesis 15 plus 2 m right parenthesis end fraction=fraction numerator 25 m left parenthesis 15 plus 2 m right parenthesis over denominator left parenthesis 15 plus 2 m right parenthesis to the power of 2 end exponent end fraction> 0,
    for m > 0, or m < – fraction numerator 15 over denominator 2 end fraction.
    Also y = fraction numerator 60 minus 2 m over denominator negative left parenthesis 15 plus 2 m right parenthesis end fraction=fraction numerator 2 left parenthesis m minus 30 right parenthesis left parenthesis 15 plus 2 m right parenthesis over denominator left parenthesis 15 plus 2 m right parenthesis to the power of 2 end exponent end fraction>0
    for m > 30, or m < – fraction numerator 15 over denominator 2 end fraction.
    rightwards double arrow x > 0, y > 0 for m > 30 or m < – fraction numerator 15 over denominator 2 end fraction
    For m = – fraction numerator 15 over denominator 2 end fraction, the system has no solution.
    Hence (B) is correct answer.
