Find x, y, z and t, if.
$3\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}&\text{y}\\\text{z}&\text{t}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}&6\\-1&2\text{t}\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}4&\text{x}+\text{y}\\\text{z}+\text{t}&3\end{bmatrix}$
Answer
$3\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}&\text{y}\\\text{z}&\text{t}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}&6\\-1&2\text{t}\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}4&\text{x}+\text{y}\\\text{z}+\text{t}&3\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}3\text{x}&3\text{y}\\3\text{z}&3\text{t}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}+4&6+\text{x}+\text{y}\\-1+\text{z}\text+{t}&2\text{t}+3\end{bmatrix}$
$\therefore\ 3\text{x}=\text{x}+4$
$\Rightarrow3\text{x}-\text{x}=4$
$\Rightarrow2\text{x}=4$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=2$
Also,
$3\text{y}=6+\text{x}+\text{y}$
$\Rightarrow3\text{y}-\text{y}=6+\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow2\text{y}=6+\text{x}\ \dots(1)$
Putting the value of x in eq. (1), we get
$2\text{y}=6+2$
$\Rightarrow2\text{y}=8$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=4$
Now,
$3\text{t}=2\text{t}+3$
$\Rightarrow3\text{t}-2\text{t}=3$
$\Rightarrow\text{t}=3$
$3\text{z}=-1+\text{z}+\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow3\text{z}-\text{z}=-1+\text{t}$
$\Rightarrow2\text{z}=-1+\text{t}\ \dots(2)$
Putting the value of t in eq. (2), we get
$2\text{z}=-1+3$
$\Rightarrow2\text{z}=2$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=1$
$\therefore\ \text{x}=2,\text{ y}=4,\text{ z}=1$ and $\text{t}=3 $

Given,
$2\begin{bmatrix}1&3\\0&\text{x} \end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}\text{y}&0\\1&2 \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}5&6\\1&8 \end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}2&6\\0&2\text{x} \end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}\text{y}&0\\1&2 \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}5&6\\1&8 \end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}2+\text{y}&6+0\\0+1&2\text{x}+2 \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}5&6\\1&8 \end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}2+\text{y}&6\\1&2\text{x}+2 \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}5&6\\1&8 \end{bmatrix}$
Since, corresponding entries of equal matrices are equal, so
$2+\text{y}=5$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=5-2$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=3$
And $2\text{x}+2=8$
$\Rightarrow2\text{x}=6$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=3$
Hence,
$\text{x}=3,\text{y}=3$

A notebook costs 40 paise, a pen costs Rs. 1.25 and a pencil costs 35 paise. Use matrix multiplication to calculate each individual's bill.
Answer
Shopkeepers Notebooks In dozen Pens In dozen Pencils In dozen
A 12 5 6
B 10 6 7
C 11 3 8

Here,

Cost of notebooks per dozen = (12 × 40) paise = Rs. 4.80

Cost of pens per dozen = Rs. (12 × 1.25) = Rs. 15

Cost of Pencils per dozen = (12 × 35) paise = Rs. 4.20

$\therefore\ \begin{bmatrix}12&5&6\\10&6&7\\11&13&8\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}4.80\\15\\4.20\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}12\times4.80+5\times15+6\times4.20\\10\times4.80+6\times15+7\times4.20\\11\times4.80+13\times15+8\times4.20\end{bmatrix}$

Question 1142 Marks
Find the values of a, b, c and d from the equation:
$\begin{bmatrix}a-b&2a+c\\2a-b&3c+d\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-1&5\\0&13\end{bmatrix}.$
Answer
 

Equating corresponding entries,

a - b = -1 ...(i)

2a - b = 0 ...(ii)

2a + c = 5 ...(iii)

3c + d = 13 ...(iv)

Eq. (i) - Eq. (ii) = -a = -1 ⇒ a = 1

Putting a = 1 in eq. (i), 1 - b = -1 ⇒ -b = -2 ⇒ b = 2

Putting a = 1 in eq. (iii), 2 + c = 5 ⇒ c = 5 - 2 ⇒ c = 3

Putting c = 3 in eq. (iv), 9 + d = 13 ⇒ d = 13 - 9 ⇒ d = 4

$\therefore$ a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, d = 4

Question 1332 Marks
If a matrix has 24 elements, what are the possible orders it can have? What, if has 13 elements?
Answer
We know that a matrix of order m × n has mn elements. Therefore, for finding all possible orders of a matrix with 24 elements, we will find all ordered pairs with products of elements as 24.

$\therefore$ all possible ordered pairs are 

(1, 24), (24, 1), (2, 12), (12, 2), (3, 8), (8, 3), (4, 6), (6, 4)

$\therefore$ possible orders are

1 × 24, 24 × 1, 2 × 12, 12 × 2, 3 × 8, 8 × 3, 4 × 6, 6 × 4

if number of elements = 13, then possible orders are 1 × 13, 13 × 1.

Question 1452 Marks
Find the values of x and y if.

$\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}+10&\text{y}^2+2\text{y}\\0&-4\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}3\text{x}+4&3\\0&\text{y}^2-5\text{y}\end{bmatrix}$

Answer
Here,
x + 10 = 3x + 4 [$\because$ All the corresponding elements of the matrix are equal]
⇒ x - 3x = 4 - 10
⇒ -2x = -6
$\therefore$ x = 3
Also,
y2 + 2y = 3
⇒ y2 + 2y - 3 = 0
⇒ y2 + 3y - y - 3 = 0
⇒ y(y + 3) - 1(y + 3) = 0
⇒ (y + 3)(y - 1) = 0
⇒ y + 3 = 0 or y - 1 = 0
⇒ y = -3 or y = 1
Now
-4 = y2 - 5y
⇒ y2 - 5y + 4 = 0
⇒ y2 - 4y - y + 4 = 0
⇒ y(y - 4) - 1(y - 4) = 0
⇒ (y - 4)(y - 1) = 0
⇒ y - 4 = 0 or y - 1 = 0
⇒ y = 4 or y = 1
Since y2 + 2y = 3 and y2 - 5y = -4 must hold good simultaneously, we take the common solution of these two equations.
Thus,
y = 1, x = 3 and y = 1

  2. (A - A') is a skew symmentric matrix.
Answer
$\text{A}'=\begin{bmatrix}1&6\\5&7\end{bmatrix}$

  1. $\text{A}+\text{A}'=\begin{bmatrix}1&5\\6&7\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}1&6\\5&7\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}2&11\\11&14\end{bmatrix}$

$\therefore\ (\text{A}+\text{A})'=\begin{bmatrix}2&11\\11&14\end{bmatrix} = \text{A}+\text{A}'$

Hence, $(\text{A}+\text{A}')$ is a symmentric matrix.

  1. $\text{A} - \text{A}'=\begin{bmatrix}1&5\\6&7\end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}1&6\\5&7\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0&-1\\1&0\end{bmatrix}$

$(\text{A} - \text{A}')'=\begin{bmatrix}0&1\\-1&0\end{bmatrix}=-\begin{bmatrix}0&-1\\1&0\end{bmatrix}=-(\text{A} -\text{A}')$

Hence, $(\text{A} - \text{A}')$ is a skew - symmentric matrix.
