What is the value of (r) for infinitely many solutions of (4x+(r-2)y=14) and (10x+15y=35)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (r=8)

The direct answer is option B, r=8. For two linear equations to have infinitely many solutions, the ratios of corresponding coefficients and constants must all be equal: \(a_1/a_2=b_1/b_2=c_1/c_2\). Here, \(4/10=2/5\) and \(14/35=2/5\). Therefore \((r-2)/15=2/5\), so \(5(r-2)=30\), \(r-2=6\), and \(r=8\). Option A, r=6, gives a coefficient ratio \(4/10\) but \(4/15\) for the y-coefficients, so it fails. Option B makes all three ratios equal and is correct. Option C, r=10, gives \(8/15\), not \(2/5\). Option D, r=12, gives \(10/15\), also incorrect. The equations then represent the same line. Memory cue: infinitely many solutions means coincident lines and all three ratios equal.
