MCQ
Assertion (A) : If $\left[\begin{array}{ll}x & 1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 0 \\ -2 & 3\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}x \\ -5\end{array}\right]=0$, then value of $x$ is either -3 or 5 .
Reason (R): Two matrices $\left(\begin{array}{ll}x & y \\ u & v\end{array}\right)$ and $\left(\begin{array}{ll}a & b \\ c & d\end{array}\right)$ are equal if and only if their corresponding entries are equal.
  • Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B
    Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • C
    (A) is true but (R) is false.
  • D
    (A) is false but (R) is true.

Answer

Correct option: A.
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
(a) : Given $\left[\begin{array}{ll}x & 1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 0 \\ -2 & 3\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}x \\ -5\end{array}\right]=0$
$
\begin{array}{l}
\Rightarrow \quad[(x-2) 3]\left[\begin{array}{c}
x \\
-5
\end{array}\right]=O \\
\Rightarrow \quad x(x-2)-15=0 \Rightarrow x^2-2 x-15=0 \Rightarrow x=-3,5
\end{array}
$
$\therefore$ Assertion and Reason both are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
