Ques. 1JEE Main 2025, 22 January (Evening Shift)

If the system of linear equations : x+y+2z=6 2x+3y+az=a+1 -x-3y+bz=2b where a,b , has infinitely many solutions, then 7a+3b is equal to :

  1. 12
  2. 9
  3. 22
  4. 16

Answer

(4) 16

Solution

R2-2R1: y+(a-4)z=a-11

R3+R1: -2y+(b+2)z=2b+6

Eliminate y: (2a+b-6) z=2a+2b-16

Infinitely many solutions both sides =0

2a+b=6, 2a+2b=16

b=10, a=-2

7a+3b=-14+30=16

Answer: (4)
