Question
If $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}2&4\\4&3\end{bmatrix},\text{X}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{n}\\1\end{bmatrix},\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}8\\11\end{bmatrix}$and AX = B, then find n.

Answer

Here,
$\begin{bmatrix}2&4\\4&3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\text{n}\\1\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}8\\11\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}2\text{n}+4\\4\text{n}+3\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}8\\11\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow2\text{n}+4=8$
$\Rightarrow2\text{n}=4$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}=2$
