4. For what value of k, the following system of equations have (i) a unique solution, (ii) no solutions:

kx + 2y = 5; 3x - 4y = 10

5. Find the value of a and b for which the following system of linear equations has infinite numbers of solutions:

2x - 3y = 7

6. For the value of k, for which the following system of linear equations has in finite number of solutions:

2x + 3y = 7
(k - 1) x + (k +2)y = 3k

solve the following system of linear equations:

7. 3x - 5y = -1, x - y = -1

8. x + y = 7, 5x + 12y = 7

9. 3x - 4y = 1, 4x - 3y = 6

10. x + y/2 = 4, x/3 + 2y = 5

11. x/3 + y/4 = 4, 5x/6 - y/8 = 4

12. 2/x + 2/3y = 1/6, 3/x + 2/y = 0

13. 2u + 15v = 17uv, 5u + 5v = 36uv

14. 3(a + 3b) = 11ab, 3(2a +b) = 7ab

15. 2x/a + y/b = 2, x/a - y/b = 4
