Answer: β ≠ ±1
Step-by-step explanation: For a system of equations to have an unique solution, its determinant must be different from 0: det |A| ≠ 0. So,
det
≠ 0
Determinant of a 3x3 matrix is calculated by:
det ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&\beta&1-\beta\\2&2&0\\2-2\beta&4&0\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&\beta\\2&2\\2-2\beta&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%26%5Cbeta%261-%5Cbeta%5C%5C2%262%260%5C%5C2-2%5Cbeta%264%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%26%5Cbeta%5C%5C2%262%5C%5C2-2%5Cbeta%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

β ≠ ±1
For the system to have only one solution, β ≠ 1 or β ≠ -1.
Answer:Jewels, WOOL, SILK
Step-by-step explanation:
sorry for the caps
Smallest side XYZ/ Smallest side ABC = Longest side XYZ/ Longest side ABC
Let longest side XYZ be x
280/112 = x/144
x = (280/112)×144
x = 360
Option D will be your answer
