MCQ
Find the values of $a, \,b,\, c,$ and $d$ from the following equation:

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}
2 a+b & a-2 b \\
5 c-d & 4 c+3 d
\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}
4 & -3 \\
11 & 24
\end{array}\right]$

  • $a=1$,  $b=2$,  $c=3$,  $d=4$
  • B
    $a=1$,  $b=4$,  $c=3$,  $d=4$
  • C
    $a=1$,  $b=2$,  $c=5$,  $d=4$
  • D
    $a=8$,  $b=2$,  $c=3$,  $d=4$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$a=1$,  $b=2$,  $c=3$,  $d=4$
a
Solution By equality of two matrices, equating the corresponding elements, we get

$\begin{array}{ll}
2 a+b=4 & 5 c-d=11 \\
a-2 b=-3 & 4 c+3 d=24
\end{array}$

Solving these equations, we get

$a=1$,  $b=2$,  $c=3$ and  $d=4$
