Let A =R×R and * be a binary operation on A defined by,
(a, b) * (c, d) = (a + c, b + d).
Show that * is commutative and associative. Find the binary element for * on A, if any.

Answer

We have,
A = R × R and * is a binary operation on A defined by (a, b) * (c, d) = (a + c, b + d).
Now,
(a, b) * (c, d) = (a + c, b + d) = (c + a, d + b)
⇒ (a, b) * (c, d) = (c, d) * (a, b)
So, * is commutative.
Also,
(a, b) * [(c, d) * (e, f)] = (a, b) * (c + e, d + f)
= (a, b) * (c + e, d + f)
= (a + c + e, b + d + f)
= (a + c, b + d) * (e, f)
= [(a, b) * (c, d)] * (e, f)
⇒ (a, b) * [(c, d) * (e, f)] = [(a, b) * (c, d)] * (e, f)
So, * is associative.
Let (x, y) be the binary element for * on A.
(a, b) * (x, y) = (a, b) = (x, y) * (a, b)
⇒ (a + x, b + y) = (a, b)
⇒ a + x = a and b + y = b
⇒ x = 0 and y = 0
Hence, (0, 0) is the binary element for * on A.

Of the students in a college, it is known that $60\%$ reside in hostel and $40\%$ are day scholars (not residing in hostel). Previous year results report that $30\%$ of all students who reside in hostel attain 'A' grade and $20\%$ of day scholars attain 'A' grade in their annual examination. At the end of the year, one student is chosen at random from the college and he has an 'A' grade, what is the probability that the student is a hostlier?

Two schools $A$ and $B$ want to award their selected students on the values of sincerity, truthfulness and helpfulness. The school A wants to award $₹ x$ each, $₹ y$ each and $₹ z$ each for the three respective values to $3, 2$ and $1$ students respectively with a total award money of $₹ 1,600$. School $B$ wants to spend ₹ $2,300$ to award its $4, 1$ and $3$ students on the respective values $($by giving the same award money to the three values as before$).$ If the total amount of award for one prize on each value is $₹ 900$, using matrices, find the award money for each value. Apart from these three values, suggest one more value which should be considered for award.
