Solution
Given System of Equations:
- x + 2y + 2z = 5
- x + 2y + 3z = 6
- x + 2y + \lambda z = \mu
Goal: Find values of \lambda and \mu such that the system has infinitely many solutions
Step 1: Write Augmented Matrix
[A|B] =
\begin{bmatrix}
1 & 2 & 2 & 5 \\
1 & 2 & 3 & 6 \\
1 & 2 & \lambda & \mu
\end{bmatrix}
Step 2: Row operations: Subtract R_1 from R_2 and R_3
\Rightarrow
\begin{bmatrix}
1 & 2 & 2 & 5 \\
0 & 0 & 1 & 1 \\
0 & 0 & \lambda - 2 & \mu - 5
\end{bmatrix}
Step 3: For infinitely many solutions, rank of coefficient matrix = rank of augmented matrix < number of variables (3)
This happens when the third row becomes all zeros:
\lambda - 2 = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad \mu - 5 = 0
\Rightarrow \lambda = 2,\quad \mu = 5
✅ Final Answer: \boxed{\lambda = 2,\ \mu = 5}
