The values of a and b, for which the system of equations
2x + 3y + 6z = 8
x + 2y + az = 5
3x + 5y + 9z = b
Has no solution, are:

3x + 5y + 9z = b
Has no solution, are:
Option 1 -
a = 3, b = 3
Option 2 -
a ≠ 3, b ≠ 13
Option 3 -
a = 3, b ≠ 13

Correct Option - 3
Detailed Solution:System of equations can be written as
[2 3 6; 1 2 a; 3 5 9] [x; y; z] = [8; 5; b]
R? →R? -1/2R? , R? →R? -3/2R?
. the system will have no solution if 3-a=0 and b-13≠0.
i.e. for a=3 & b≠13.
