Exercise 8.3
Question 1
If $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3 & 5 \\ 4 & -2\end{array}\right]$ and $B=\left[\begin{array}{l}2 \\ 4\end{array}\right]$ , is the product AB possible ? Give a reason if yes, find AB
Sol :
Yes, the product is possible because of
number of column in A = number of row in B
i.e., (2 x 2). (2 x 1) = (2 x 1) is the order of the matrix.
Question 2
If $A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 5 \\ 1 & 3\end{array}\right], B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & -1 \\ -3 & 2\end{array}\right]$, find AB and BA, Is AB = BA ?
$\therefore A \times B=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 5 \\ 1 & 3\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{rr}1 & -1 \\ -3 & 2\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}2-15 & -2+10 \\ 1-9 & -1+6\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{rr}-13 & 8 \\ -8 & 5\end{array}\right]$
and $B \times A=\left[\begin{array}{rr}1 & -1 \\ -3 & 2\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 5 \\ 1 & 3\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}2-1 & 5-3 \\ -6+2 & -15+6\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}1 & 2 \\ -4 & -9\end{array}\right]$
Hence AB≠BA
Question 3
If $\mathrm{P}=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & 6 \\ 2 & -8\end{array}\right], \mathrm{Q}=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & -3 \\ -1 & 1\end{array}\right]$
Find 2PQ
$2 P Q=2\left[\begin{array}{rr}4 & 6 \\ 2 & -8\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{lr}2 & -3 \\ -1 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$=2\left[\begin{array}{cc}8-6 & -12+6 \\ 4+8 & -6-8\end{array}\right]$
$=2\left[\begin{array}{cc}8 & -6 \\ 12 & -14\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & -12 \\ 24 & -28\end{array}\right]$
Question 4

$=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1+8 & 1+3 \\ 8+24 & 8+9\end{array}\right]-\left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & 4 \\ 32 & 12\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{cc}9 & 4 \\ 32 & 17\end{array}\right]-\left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & 4 \\ 32 & 12\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{cccc}9 & -4 & 4 & -4 \\ 32 & -32 & 17 & -12\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}5 & 0 \\ 0 & 5\end{array}\right]$

$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}0+35 & 6+21 \\ 0+20 & 4+12\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}35 & 27 \\ 20 & 16\end{array}\right]$
$5 \mathrm{C}=5\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & -5 \\ -4 & 6\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}5 & -25 \\ -20 & 30\end{array}\right]$
$\mathrm{AB}-5 \mathrm{C}=\left[\begin{array}{cc}35 & 27 \\ 20 & 16\end{array}\right]-\left[\begin{array}{cc}5 & -25 \\ -20 & 30\end{array}\right]$

$\mathrm{A}(\mathrm{BA})=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2 \\ 2 & 1\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{ll}4 & 5 \\ 5 & 4\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4+10 & 5+8 \\ 8+5 & 10+4\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}14 & 13 \\ 13 & 14\end{array}\right]$

$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}6-1 & 8-2 \\ 12-2 & 16-4\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{rr}-3 & 1 \\ 0 & -2\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}5 & 6 \\ 10 & 12\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{rr}-3 & 1 \\ 0 & -2\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}-15+0 & 5-12 \\ -30+0 & 10-24\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{rr}-15 & -7 \\ -30 & -14\end{array}\right]$

$\sin 30^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2}, \cos 60^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\therefore A B+B A$
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}-14 & -15 \\ -12 & -30\end{array}\right]+\left[\begin{array}{ll}-8 & -6 \\ -8 & -36\end{array}\right]$

$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}6-(-3) & 4-0 \\ -4-0 & 2-(-3)\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{rr}6+3 & 4 \\ -4 & 2+3\end{array}\right]$

Solution $=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2 \\ 2 & 1\end{array}\right]$
or
$X=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2 \\ 2 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore X^{2}=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2 \\ 2 & 1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2 \\ 2 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1+4 & 2+2 \\ 2+2 & 4+1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}5 & 4 \\ 4 & 5\end{array}\right]$

$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore X^{2}-2 X-3 I=0$
Hence proved

$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{ll}0+35 & 6+21 \\ 0+20 & 4+12\end{array}\right]+2 X=\left[\begin{array}{rr}1 & -5 \\ -4 & 6\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{ll}35 & 27 \\ 20 & 16\end{array}\right]+2 X=\left[\begin{array}{rr}1 & -5 \\ -4 & 6\end{array}\right]$
$2 X=-\left[\begin{array}{ll}35 & 27 \\ 20 & 16\end{array}\right]+\left[\begin{array}{rr}1 & -5 \\ -4 & -6\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}-34 & -32 \\ -24 & -10\end{array}\right]$
$X=\frac{1}{2}\left[\begin{array}{ll}-34 & -32 \\ -24 & -10\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{rr}-17 & -16 \\ -12 & -5\end{array}\right]$

$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}1+x & 1+x \\ x+x^{2} & x+x^{2}\end{array}\right]$
$\because \quad A^{2}=0$
$\therefore=\left[\begin{array}{rr}1+x & 1+x \\ x+x^{2} & x+x^{2}\end{array}\right]=0=\left[\begin{array}{ll}0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0\end{array}\right]$
Comparing $1+x=0 \Rightarrow x=-1$
Question 21
If $\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 3 \\ 0 & 0\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}2 \\ -1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ 0\end{array}\right]$ Find the value of $x$
Sol :
$\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 3 \\ 0 & 0\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}2 \\ -1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ 0\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & -3 \\ 0 & 0\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ 0\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{c}-1 \\ 0\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ 0\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements
x=-1

$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{cc}-3 x & 4 \\ 0 & -10\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}-5 \\ y\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements
-3x+4=-5
$\Rightarrow-3 x=-5-4=-9$
$\therefore x=\frac{-9}{-3}=3$
-10=y
$\Rightarrow y=-10$
Hence , x=3, y=-10
(ii) $\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 x & x \\ y & 3 y\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}3 \\ 2\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}16 \\ 9\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{l}2 x \times 3+x \times 2 \\ y \times 3+3 y \times 2\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}16 \\ 9\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{l}6 x+2 x \\ 3 y+6 y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}16 \\ 9\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{l}8 x \\ 9 y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}16 \\ 9\end{array}\right]$
Comparing, we get
8x=16
$\Rightarrow x=\frac{16}{8}=2$
and 9y=9
$\Rightarrow y=\frac{9}{9}=1$
Here x=2, y=1
Question 23

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}x+y & y \\ 2 x & x-y\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}2 \\ -1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}3 \\ 2\end{array}\right]$
Sol :
Given
$\Rightarrow \left[\begin{array}{rr}2 x+2 y & -y \\ 4 x & -x+y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}3 \\ 2\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow \left[\begin{array}{ll}2 x & +y \\ 3 x & +y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}3 \\ 2\end{array}\right]$
Question 24
If $\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2 \\ 3 & 3\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ll}x & 0 \\ 0 & y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}x & 0 \\ 9 & 0\end{array}\right]$ find the values of x and y

$\Rightarrow \left[\begin{array}{rr}x & 2 y \\ 3 x & 3 y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}x & 0 \\ 9 & 0\end{array}\right]$
Question 25
If $\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & 4 \\ 2 & 5\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}a & b \\ c & d\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$ write down the values of a, b, c and d
Sol :
Given
$\Rightarrow \left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & 4 \\ 2 & 5\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}a+0 & 0+b \\ c+0 & 0+d\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow \left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & 4 \\ 2 & 5\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}a & b \\ c & d\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements
a = 3, b = 4, c = 2, d = 5

Where $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & 12 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$ and
$B=\left[\begin{array}{ll}4 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
Sol :
$A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 12 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$ and
$B=\left[\begin{array}{ll}4 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$A^{2}=B$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 12 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 12 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}4 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 \times 2+12 \times 0 & 2 \times 12+12 \times 1 \\ 0 \times 2+1 \times 0 & 0 \times 12+1 \times 1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}4 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{cc}4+0 & 24+12 \\ 0+0 & 0+1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}4 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & 36 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}4 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements of two equal matrices, x=36
Question 27
If $A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$ and $B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & 36 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right],$ find the value of $x,$ given that $A^{2}-B$
Sol :
Given :
$A^{2}=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}4+0 & 2 x+x \\ 0+0 & 0+1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{rr}4 & 3 x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$\because A^{2}=B$
$\therefore\left[\begin{array}{rr}4 & 3 x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{rr}4 & 36 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
Corresponding the corresponding elements
3 x=36
$\Rightarrow x=12$
Hence x=12
Question 28
If $A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$ and $B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}9 & 16 \\ 0 & -y\end{array}\right]$ find $x$ and $y$ when $A^{2}=B$
Sol :
Given :
$A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$ and $B=\left[\begin{array}{ll}9 & 16 \\ 0 & -y\end{array}\right]$ find x and y when A² = B
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{cc}9 & 3 x+x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}9 & 4 x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
We have $A^{2}=B$
Two matrices are equal if each and every corresponding element is equal.
Thus, $\left[\begin{array}{cc}9 & 4 x \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}9 & 16 \\ 0 & -y\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow 4 x=16$ and $1=-y$
$\Rightarrow x=4$ and $y=-1$
Question 29
Find x, y if $\left[\begin{array}{cc}-2 & 0 \\ 3 & 1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}-1 \\ 2 x\end{array}\right]+3\left[\begin{array}{c}-2 \\ 1\end{array}\right]=2\left[\begin{array}{l}y \\ 3\end{array}\right]$
Sol :
$\left[\begin{array}{c}-2 \times-1+0 \times 2 x \\ 3 \times-1+1 \times 2 x\end{array}\right]+\left[\begin{array}{c}-6 \\ 3\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}2 y \\ 6\end{array}\right]$
$\left[\begin{array}{c}2 \\ -3+2 x\end{array}\right]+\left[\begin{array}{c}-6 \\ 3\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}2 y \\ 6\end{array}\right]$
$\left[\begin{array}{c}2-6 \\ -3+2 x+3\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}2 y \\ 6\end{array}\right] $
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{c}-4 \\ 2 x\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}2 y \\ 6\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow 2 x=6$ and $2 y=-4$
$\Rightarrow x=\frac{6}{2}$ and $y=-\frac{4}{2}$
$\Rightarrow x=3$ and $\Rightarrow y=-2$
Question 30
If $\left[\begin{array}{ll}a & 1 \\ 1 & 0\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & 3 \\ -3 & 2\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}b & 11 \\ 4 & c\end{array}\right]$ find a,b and c
$\Rightarrow \left[\begin{array}{cc}4 a-3 & 3 a+2 \\ 4+0 & 3+0\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}b & 11 \\ 4 & c\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements
3a+2=11
$\Rightarrow 3 a=11-2=9$
$\therefore a=\frac{9}{3}=3$
4a-3=b
$\Rightarrow b=4 \times 3-3=12-3=9$
3=c
Question 31
If $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 4 \\ 0 & -1\end{array}\right], B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & x \\ 0 & -\frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right]$ find the value of x if AB = BA
$\mathrm{BA}=\left[\begin{array}{rr}2 & x \\ 0 & -\frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{rr}1 & 4 \\ 0 & -1\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2+0 & 8-x \\ 0+0 & 0+\frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{lr}2 & 8-x \\ 0 & \frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right]$
$\because \mathrm{AB}=\mathrm{BA}$
$\therefore\left[\begin{array}{rr}2 & x-2 \\ 0 & \frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{lr}2 & 8-x \\ 0 & \frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements
x-2=8-x
$\Rightarrow x+x=8+2 \Rightarrow 2 x=10$
$\therefore x=\frac{10}{2}=5$
Question 32
If $A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 3 \\ 1 & 2\end{array}\right]$ find x and y so that A² – xA + yI
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}4+3 & 6+6 \\ 2+2 & 3+4\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{rr}7 & 12 \\ 4 & 7\end{array}\right]$
$ \because \mathrm{A}^{2}=x \mathrm{~A}+y \mathrm{I}$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{ll}7 & 12 \\ 4 & 7\end{array}\right]=x\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 3 \\ 1 & 2\end{array}\right]+y\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{ll}7 & 12 \\ 4 & 7\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{rr}2 x & 3 x \\ x & 2 x\end{array}\right]+\left[\begin{array}{ll}y & 0 \\ 0 & y\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{rr}2 x+y & 3 x \\ x & 2 x+y\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements $3 x=12 \Rightarrow x=4$
2x+y=7
$\Rightarrow 2 \times 4+y=7$
$\Rightarrow 8+y=7 \Rightarrow y=7-8=-1$
Hence x=4, y=-1
Question 33
If $P=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 6 \\ 3 & 9\end{array}\right], Q=\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & x \\ y & 2\end{array}\right]$
find x and y such that PQ = 0
$\mathrm{PQ}=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 6 \\ 3 & 9\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & x \\ y & 2\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}6+6 y & 2 x+12 \\ 9+9 y & 3 x+18\end{array}\right]$
∵PQ=0
$\therefore\left[\begin{array}{ll}6+6 y & 2 x+12 \\ 9+9 y & 3 x+18\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements
6+6 y=0
$\Rightarrow 6 y=-6 \Rightarrow \quad y=-1$
2x+12=0
$\Rightarrow 2x=-12 \Rightarrow x=-6$
Hence x=-6, y=-1
Question 34
Let $M \times\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 1 \\ 0 & 2\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2\end{array}\right]$ where M is a matrix
Sol :
(i) M is the order of 1 x 2
let M = [x y]
$\Rightarrow[x+0 \quad x+2 y]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements x=1 and
x+2y=2
$\Rightarrow 1+2 y=2$
$\Rightarrow 2 y=2-1=1 \Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}$
Hence $x=1, y=\frac{1}{2}$
$\therefore M=\left[1 \quad \frac{1}{2}\right]$
Question 35
Given $\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & 1 \\ -3 & 4\end{array}\right] \quad X=\left[\begin{array}{l}7 \\ 6\end{array}\right]$
(i) the order of the matrix X
(ii) the matrix X
Sol :
We have
(i) We see that 2×2×2×1=2×1
The order of X is 2×1
(ii) Let $X=\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]$
So, $\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & 1 \\ -3 & 4\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}7 \\ 6\end{array}\right] \Rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{c}2 x+y \\ -3 x+4 y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}7 \\ 6\end{array}\right]$
2x+y=7..(i)
-3x+4y=6...(ii)
Multiplying (i) by 3 and (ii) by 2, and adding we get :
$\begin{array}{r}6 x+3 y=21 \\-6 x+8 y=12 \\\hline 11 y=33\end{array}$
y=3
From (i) , 2x=7-3=4
x=2
So, $X=\left[\begin{array}{l}2 \\ 3\end{array}\right]$
Question 36
Solve the matrix equation : $\left[\begin{array}{l}4 \\ 1\end{array}\right] , \mathrm{X}=\left[\begin{array}{ll}-4 & 8 \\ -1 & 2\end{array}\right]$
Sol :
$\left[\begin{array}{l}4 \\ 1\end{array}\right], X=\left[\begin{array}{ll}-4 & 8 \\ -1 & 2\end{array}\right]$
Let matrix X = [x y]
Comparing the corresponding elements.
4x=-4
$\Rightarrow \quad x=-1$
4y=8
$ \Rightarrow \quad y=2$
$\therefore X=\left[\begin{array}{ll}-1 & 2\end{array}\right]$
Question 37
(i) If $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & -1 \\ -4 & 5\end{array}\right]$ and $B=\left[\begin{array}{c}-3 \\ 2\end{array}\right]$ find the matrix C such that CA=B
(ii) If $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & -1 \\ -4 & 5\end{array}\right]$ and $B=[0-3]$ find the matrix C such that CA=B
Sol :
(i) given
Let Matrix $\mathrm{C}=\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore \mathrm{AC}=\left[\begin{array}{rr}2 & -1 \\ -4 & 5\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}2 x-y \\ -4 x+5 y\end{array}\right]$
But AC=B
$\therefore\left[\begin{array}{c}2 x-y \\ -4 x+5 y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{r}-3 \\ 2\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding elements.
2 x-y=-3...(i)
-4 x+5 y=2..(ii)
Multiplying (i) by 5 and (ii) by 1
$\begin{array}{l}
10 x-5 y=-15 \\
-4 x+5 y=2 \\
\hline 6 x=-13
\end{array}$
$x=\frac{-13}{6}$
Substituting the value of x in (i)
$2\left(\frac{-13}{6}\right)-y=-3 \Rightarrow \frac{-13}{3}-y=-3$
$-y=-3+\frac{13}{3}=\frac{-9+13}{3}=\frac{4}{3}$
$\therefore y=-\frac{4}{3}$
$\therefore$ Matrix $C=\left[\begin{array}{c}\frac{-13}{6} \\ \frac{-4}{3}\end{array}\right]$
(ii) $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & -1 \\ -4 & 5\end{array}\right]$ and B=[0,-3]
Let Matrix C=[x y]
Since the matrix $A$ is $2 \times 2$ and $B=7 \times 2$
$\because \mathrm{CA}=\mathrm{B}$
$\therefore(x y)\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & -1 \\ -4 & 5\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}0 & -3\end{array}\right]$
=(2 x-4 y-x+5 y)=[0-3]
Comparing
2x-4 y=0
$\Rightarrow x-2 y=0$
$\therefore x=2 y$
and $-x+5 y=-3 \Rightarrow-2 y+5 y=-3$
$\Rightarrow 3 y=-3 \Rightarrow y=-1$
$\therefore x=2 y=2 \times(-1)=-2$
Hence , $C=\left[\begin{array}{ll}x & y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}-2 & -1\end{array}\right]$
Question 38
If $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3 & -4 \\ -1 & 2\end{array}\right]$ , find matrix B such that BA = I,where I is unity matrix of order 2
$A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3 & -4 \\ -1 & 2\end{array}\right]$
BA = I, where I is unity matrix of order 2
Let $\mathbf{B}=\left[\begin{array}{ll}a & b \\ c & d\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore \mathrm{BA}$
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}a & b \\ c & d\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{cc}3 & -4 \\ -1 & 2\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 a-b & -4 a+2 b \\ 3 c-d & -4 c+2 d\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 a-b & -4 a+2 b \\ 3 c-d & -4 c+2 d\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
Comparing the corresponding terms, we get
$3 a-b=1,-4 a+2 b=0 \Rightarrow 2 b=4 a \Rightarrow b=2 a$
$\therefore 3 a-b=1 \Rightarrow 3 a-2 a=1 \Rightarrow a=1$
$\quad$ and $b=2 a \Rightarrow b=2 \times 1=2$
$\therefore a=1, b=2$
$\quad$ and $3 c-d=0 \Rightarrow d=3 c$
$\quad-4 c+2 d=1 \Rightarrow-4 c+2 \times 3 c=1$
$\Rightarrow-4 c+6 c=1 \Rightarrow 2 c=1 \quad \Rightarrow c=\frac{1}{2}$
and $d=3 c=3 \times \frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$
Hence $a=1, b=2, c=\frac{1}{2}, d=\frac{3}{2}$
$\therefore$ Matrix $B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 2 \\ \frac{1}{2} & \frac{3}{2}\end{array}\right]$
Question 39
If $B=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-4 & 2 \\ 5 & -1\end{array}\right]$ and $C=\left[\begin{array}{cc}17 & -1 \\ 47 & -13\end{array}\right]$
find the matrix A such that AB = C
and AB = C
Then $\mathrm{AB}=\left[\begin{array}{ll}a & b \\ c & d\end{array}\right] \times\left[\begin{array}{cc}-4 & 2 \\ 5 & -1\end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{ll}-4 a+5 b & 2 a-b \\ -4 c+5 d & 2 c-d\end{array}\right]$
$\because A B=C$
$\therefore\left[\begin{array}{ll}-4 a+5 b & 2 a-b \\ -4 c+5 d & 2 c-d\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}17 & -1 \\ 47 & -13\end{array}\right]$
Comparing corresponding elements, we get
$\because-4 a+5 b=17$...(i)
$2 a-b=-1$...(ii)
$-4 c+5 d=47$...(iii)
$2 c-d=-13$...(iv)
Multiplying (i) by 1 and (ii) by 2
-4a+5b=17
4a-2b=-2
Adding
$3 b=15 \Rightarrow b=\frac{15}{3}=5$
$2 a-b=-1 \Rightarrow 2 a-5=-1 \Rightarrow 2 a=-1+5$
$\quad=4 \Rightarrow a=\frac{4}{2}=2$
$\therefore a=2, b=5$
Again multiplying (iii) by 1 and (iv) by 2 ,
-4 c+5 d=47
4 c-2 d=-26
Adding $3 d=21 \Rightarrow d=\frac{21}{3}=7$
and $2 c-d=-13 \Rightarrow 2 c-7=-13$
$\Rightarrow 2 c=-13+7=-6 \Rightarrow c=\frac{-6}{2}=-3$
$\therefore c=-3, d=7$
Now matrix $\mathrm{A}=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & 5 \\ -3 & 7\end{array}\right]$
