If A = [ * 20 c 3& - 5 - 4 &2 ],then A^2 - 5A = - Vidyadip

MCQ

If $A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 5}\\{ - 4}&2\end{array}} \right],$then ${A^2} - 5A = $

A
$I$
✓
$14\ I$
C
$0$
D
None of these

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

$14\ I$

b
(b) ${A^2} = A.A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 5}\\{ - 4}&2\end{array}} \right]{\rm{ }}\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 5}\\{ - 4}&2\end{array}} \right]$

$ \Rightarrow \,{A^2} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{29}&{ - 25}\\{ - 20}&{24}\end{array}} \right]$ and $5A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{15}&{ - 25}\\{ - 20}&{10}\end{array}} \right]$

$\therefore$ ${A^2} - 5A = 14\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1&0\\0&1\end{array}} \right] = 14I$.
