hard
If the system of linear equations $x - 2y + kz = 1$ ; $2x + y + z = 2$ ; $3x - y - kz = 3$ Has a solution $(x, y, z) \ne 0$, then $(x, y)$ lies on the straight line whose equation is
A
$3x -4y -1 = 0$
B
$4x -3y -4 = 0$
C
$4x -3y -1 = 0$
D
$3x -4y -4 = 0$

Solution
For infinitly many solution
$\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
1&{ – 2}&k\\
2&1&1\\
3&{ – 1}&{ – k}
\end{array}} \right| – 0$
$ \Rightarrow k = \frac{{ – 1}}{2}$
Also consider
$x – 2y + k = 1$ and $2x + y + z = 2$
$ \Rightarrow 2x – 4y – z – 2$
$2x + y + z = 2$
$ \Rightarrow 4x – 3y = 4$
