Question:medium

If the system of equations \[ x-2y+z=-4,\qquad 6x+y+kz=15,\qquad 39x-13y+hz=39 \] has infinitely many solutions, then the locus of the point \((h,k)\) is a straight line. The \(x\)-intercept of that line is

Show Hint

If a system of three linear equations has infinitely many solutions, then one equation must be a linear combination of the other two. \[ \boxed{ R_3=\lambda R_1+\mu R_2 } \] Comparing corresponding coefficients quickly gives the required relations.
