For $\alpha, \beta \in R$, suppose the system of linear equations $x-y+z=5$ ; $ 2 x+2 y+\alpha z=8 $ ; $3 x-y+4 z=\beta$ has infinitely many solutions. Then $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are the roots of

A

$x ^2-10 x +16=0$

B

$x^2+18 x+56=0$

C

$x^2-18 x+56=0$

D

$x^2+14 x+24=0$

Solution

$\begin{array}{l}\left|\begin{array}{ccc}1 & -1 & 1 \\ 2 & 2 & \alpha \\ 3 & -1 & 4\end{array}\right|=0 ; 8+\alpha-2(-4+1)+3(-\alpha-2)=0 \\ 8+\alpha+6-3 \alpha-6=0 \\ \alpha=4\end{array}$
