Correct Option - 3
Detailed Solution:Note D = |3, 4, 5; 1, 2, 3; 4, 4| = 0 (R? → R? - 2R? + 3R? )
Now let P? = 4x+4y+4z-δ=0. If the system has solutions it will have infinite solution, so P? = αP? + βP?
Hence 3α+β=4 and 4α+2β=4 ⇒ α=2 and β=-2
So for infinite solution 2µ-2=δ ⇒ for 2µ ≠ δ+2 System inconsistent
