For the system of linear equations:
$2x - y + 3z = 5$
$3x + 2y - z = 7$
$4x + 5y + \alpha z = \beta$
Which of the following is $NOT$ correct?

In a legislative assembly election,a political group hired a public relations firm to promote its candidate in three ways: telephone,house calls,and letters. The cost per contact (in paise) is given in matrix $A$ as $A = \begin{bmatrix} 40 \\ 100 \\ 50 \end{bmatrix} \begin{matrix} \text{Telephone} \\ \text{Housecall} \\ \text{Letter} \end{matrix}$. The number of contacts of each type made in two cities $X$ and $Y$ is given by $B = \begin{bmatrix} 1000 & 500 & 5000 \\ 3000 & 1000 & 10000 \end{bmatrix} \begin{matrix} \text{Telephone} & \text{Housecall} & \text{Letter} \\ \to X \\ \to Y \end{matrix}$.
