Question 515 Marks
Solve the follwing system of equations by matrix method:
$3x + 4y - 5 = 0$
$x - y + 3 = 0$
Answer
The given system of equations can be written in matrix form as follow:
$\begin{bmatrix}3&4\\ 1&-1\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}5\\ -3\end{bmatrix}$
AX = B
Here,
$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}3&4\\ 1&-1\end{bmatrix},\text{x}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}\text{ and }\text{ B}=\begin{bmatrix}5\\ -3\end{bmatrix}$
Now,
$\text{|A|}=\begin{vmatrix}3&4\\ 1&-1\end{vmatrix}$
$=-3-4$
$=-7\neq0$
So, the given system has a unique solution given by $X = A^{-1} B$.
Let $C_{ij}$ be the cofactors of the elements $a_{ij}$ in $A = [a_{ij}]$. Then,
$\text{C}_{11}=(-1)^{1+1}(-1)=-1,\text{C}_{12}=(-1)^{1+2}(1)=-1$
$\text{C}_{21}=(-1)^{2+1(4)}=-4,\text{C}_{22}=-{(-1)}^{2+2}{(3)}={(3)}$
$\text{adj A}=\begin{bmatrix}-1&-1\\ -4&3\end{bmatrix}^{T}=\begin{bmatrix}-1&-4\\ -1&3\end{bmatrix}$
$\text{A}^{-1}=\frac{1}{\text{|A|}}\text{adj A}$
$=\frac{1}{-7}\begin{bmatrix}-1&-4\\ -1&3\end{bmatrix}$
$X = A^{-1} B$
$=\frac{1}{-7}\begin{bmatrix}-1&-4\\ -1&3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}5\\ -3\end{bmatrix}$
$=\frac{1}{-7}\begin{bmatrix}-5+12\\ -5-9\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}\frac{7}{-7}\\ \frac{-14}{-7}\end{bmatrix}$
$\therefore$ x = -1 and y = 2

Question 525 Marks
Show that the following system of linear equation is inconsistent:
4x − 2y = 3
6x − 3y = 5
Answer
This system can be written as:
$\begin{bmatrix}4&-2\\ 6&-3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} \text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}3\\ 5\end{bmatrix}$
or $\text{AX = B}$
$\text{|A|}=-12+12=0$
So, A is singular, Now system will be inconsisent, if
$(\text{adj A})\times\text{B}\neq0$
$\text{C}_{11}=-3$
$\text{C}_{12}=-6$
$\text{C}_{21}=2$
$\text{C}_{22}=4$
$\text{adj A}=\begin{bmatrix}-3&-6\\ 2&4\end{bmatrix}^\text{T}\begin{bmatrix}-3&2\\ -6&4\end{bmatrix}$
$(\text{adj A})\times(\text{B})=\begin{bmatrix}-3&2\\ -6&4\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}3\\ 5\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}-9+10\\ -18+20\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}1\\ 2\end{bmatrix}$
$\neq0$
Hence, the above system is inconsisent.

Question 545 Marks
Solve the follwing system of equations by matrix method:
$5x + 2y = 3$
$3x + 2y = 5$
Answer
The above system can be written in matrix form as: $\begin{bmatrix}5&2\\ 3&2\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}3\\ 2\end{bmatrix}$ Or $\text{AX = B}$ Where, $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}5&2\\ 3&2\end{bmatrix},\text{X}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix},\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}3\\ 5\end{bmatrix}$Now, $\text{|A|}=10-6=4\neq0$
So, the above system has a unique solution, given by $\text{X}=\text{A}^{-1}\text{B}$ Let $C_{ij}$ be the co factor of $a_{ij}$ in A, then$\text{C}_{11} = 2,\text{C}_{12} = -3$
$\text{C}_{21} = -2,\text{C}_{22} = 5$
Also, $\text{Adj A}=\begin{bmatrix}2&-3\\ -2&5\end{bmatrix}^\text{T}=\begin{bmatrix}2&-2\\ -3&5\end{bmatrix}$ $\therefore\text{A}^{-1}=\frac{1}{|\text{A}|}\text{adj A}=\frac{1}{4}\begin{bmatrix}2&-2\\ -3&5\end{bmatrix}$ Now, $X = A^{-1}B =\frac{1}{4}\begin{bmatrix}2&-2\\ -3&5\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}3\\ 5\end{bmatrix}$ $=\frac{1}{4}\begin{bmatrix}-4\\ 16\end{bmatrix}$ $\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-1\\ 4\end{bmatrix}$ Hence, x = -1 y = 4

Question 555 Marks
Show that the following system of linear equations is consistent and also find solution:
$6x + 4y = 2$
$9x + 6y =3$
Answer
Here,
$6\text{x}+4\text{y}=2\ \dots(1)$
$9\text{x}+6\text{y}\ \dots(2)$
AX = B
Here,
$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}6&4\\ 9&6\end{bmatrix},\text{X}\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}\text{and }\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}2\\ 3\end{bmatrix}$
$\begin{bmatrix}6&4\\ 9&6\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}2\\ 3\end{bmatrix}$
$\text{|A|}=\begin{vmatrix}6&4\\ 9&6\end{vmatrix}$
$= 36 -36$
$= 0$
So, A is singular. Thus, the given system of equations is either inconsistent or it is consistent with infinitely many solutions because (adj A)B ≠ 0 or (adj A) = 0.
Let $C_{ij}$ be the co-factors of the elements $a_{ij}$ in $A [a_{ij}]$. Then,
$\text{C}_{11}=6,\\ \text{C}_{12}=-9,\\ \text{C}_{21}=-4,\\ \text{C}_{22}=6$
$\text{adj A}=\begin{bmatrix}6&-9\\ -4&6\end{bmatrix}^\text{T}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}6&-4\\ -9&6\end{bmatrix}$
$\text{(adj A) B}=\begin{bmatrix}6&-4\\ -9&6\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}2\\ 3\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}12-12\\ -18+18\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}0\\ 0\end{bmatrix}$
If |A| = 0 and (adj A) B = 0, then the system is consistent and has infinitely many solutions.
Thus, AX = B has infinitely many solutions.
Substituting y = k in the eq. (1), we get
$6\text{x}+4\text{k}=2$
$\Rightarrow6\text{x}=2-4\text{k}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{2-\text{4k}}{6}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{1-\text{2k}}{3}$
$\therefore \text{x}=\frac{1-2\text{k}}{3}\text{ and }\text{y}=\text{k}$
These values of x and y satisfy the third equation.
Thus, $\text{x}=\frac{1-2\text{k}}{3}$ and y = k ( where k is a real number ) satisfy the given system of equations.

Question 565 Marks
Show that the following system of linear equations is consistent and also find solution:
$2x + 3y = 5$
$6x + 9y = 15$
Answer
$2\text{x}+3\text{y}=5\dots(1)$
$6\text{x}+9\text{y}=15\dots(2)$
Or , AX = B
Where,
$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}2&3\\ 6&9\end{bmatrix},\text{x}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}\text{and }\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}5\\ 15\end{bmatrix}$
$\begin{bmatrix}2&3\\ 6&9\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}5\\ 15\end{bmatrix}$
$\therefore\ |\text{A}|=\begin{vmatrix}2&3\\6&9\end{vmatrix}$
$=18-18$
$=0$
So, A is singular. Thus, the given system of equations is either inconsistent or it is consistent with infinitely many solutions because $(\text{adj A})\text{B}\neq0\text{ or }(\text{adj A})=0$.
$C_{11} = 9, C_{12} = -6, C_{21} = -3$ and $C_{22} = 2$
$\therefore\ \text{adj A}=\begin{bmatrix}9&-6\\-3&2\end{bmatrix}^\text{T}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}2&-3\\-6&9\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow(\text{adj A})\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}9&-3\\-6&2\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}5\\15\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}45-45\\-30+30\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}0\\0\end{bmatrix}$
If |A| = 0 and (adj A) B = 0, then the system is consistent and has infinitely many solutions.
Thus, AX = B has infinitely many solutions.
Substituting y = k in eq. (1), we get
$2\text{x} + 3\text{k}=5$
$\Rightarrow2\text{x}=5-3\text{k}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{5-3\text{k}}{2}\text{ and }\text{y}=\text{k}$
These values of x and y satisfy the third equation.
Thus, $\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{5-3\text{k}}{2}\text{ and }\text{y}=\text{k}$ (where k is a real number) satisfy the given system of equations.

$={(18-18)}$
$=0$
Let $C_{ij}$ be the co-factors of the elements $a_{ij}$ in $A = [a_{ij}]$. Then,
$\text{C}_{11}={(-1)}^{1+1}{(9)}=9,\\ \text{C}_{12}={(-1)}^{1+2}{(6)}=-6$
$\text{C}_{21}={(-1)}^{2+1}{(3)}=-3,\\ \text{C}_{22}={(-1)}^{2+2}{(6)}=2$
$\text{adj A}=\begin{bmatrix}9&-6\\ -3&2\end{bmatrix}^\text{T}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}9&-3\\ -6&2\end{bmatrix}$
$\text{(adj A) = B}=\begin{bmatrix}9&-3\\ -6&2\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}5\\ 10\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}45-30\\ -30+30\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}15\\ -10\end{bmatrix}\neq0$

Question 635 Marks
Show that the following system of linear equations is consistent and also find solution:
$2x + 2y − 2z = 1$
$4x + 4y − z = 2$
$6x + 6y + 2z = 3$
Answer
This system can be written as: $\begin{bmatrix}2&2&-2\\ 4&4&-1\\ 6&6&2\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\\ \text{z}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}1\\ 2\\ 3\end{bmatrix}$ or $\text{AX = B}$ $\text{|A|}=2{(14)}-2(14)-2{(0)}=0$ So, A is singular and the system has either no solution or infinite solutions according as $\text{(Adj A)}\times\text{(B)}\neq0$ or $\text{(Adj A)}\times\text{(B)}=0$ Let $C_{ij}$ be the co-factors of $a_{ij}$ in A $\text{C}_{11}=14\\ \text{C}_{21}=-16\\ \text{C}_{31}=6$ $\text{C}_{12}=-14\\ \text{C}_{22}=16\\ \text{C}_{32}=-6$ $\text{C}_{1}=0\\ \text{C}_{23}=0\\ \text{C}_{33}=0$ $\text{adj A}=\begin{bmatrix}14&-14&0\\ -16&16&0\\ 0&0&0\end{bmatrix}^\text{T}=\begin{bmatrix}14&-16&6\\ -14&16&-6\\ 0&0&0\end{bmatrix}$ $(\text{adj A})\times\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}14&-16&0\\ -14&16&-6\\ 0&0&0\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}1\\ 2\\ 3\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}14-32+18\\ -14+32-18\\ 0+0+0\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0\\ 0\\ 0\end{bmatrix}$ So, $\text{AX}=\text{B}$ has infinite solutions. Now, let z = k So, 2x + 2y = 1 + 2k 4x + 4y = 2 + k which can be written as: $\begin{bmatrix}2&2\\ 4&4\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}1+2\text{k}\\ 2+\text{k}\end{bmatrix}$ or $\text{AX = B}$|A| = 0, z = 0
Again, $2\text{x}+2\text{y}=1$ $4\text{x}+4\text{y}=2$ Let $\text{y = k}$ $2\text{x}=1-2\text{k}$ $\text{x}=\frac{1}{2}-\text{k}$ Hence, $\text{x}=\frac{1}{2}-\text{k}$ $\text{y}=\text{k}$ $\text{z}=0$

Question 645 Marks
Solve the following system of equations by matrix method:
$3x + 7y = 4$
$x + 2y = -1$
Answer
The above system can be written in matrix form as:$\begin{bmatrix}3&7\\ 1&2\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}4\\ -1\end{bmatrix}$
Or AX = BWhere $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}3&7\\ 1&2\end{bmatrix},\text{x}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}\text{ and }\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}4\\ -1\end{bmatrix}$
Now,$\text{|A|}=-1\neq0$
So, the above system has a unique solution, given by $X = A^{-1} B$ Now, let $C_{ij}$ be the co-factors of $a_{ij}$ in A $\text{C}_{11} = 2,\text{C}_{12} = -1$$\text{C}_{21} = -7,\text{C}_{22} = 3$
$\text{Adj A}=\begin{bmatrix}2&-1\\ -7&3\end{bmatrix}^\text{T}=\begin{bmatrix}2&-7\\ -1&3\end{bmatrix}$
$\therefore\text{A}^{-1}=\frac{1}{\text{|A|}}.\text{adj A}=\frac{1}{(-1)}\begin{bmatrix}2&-7\\ -1&3\end{bmatrix}$
Now, $X = A^{-1} B \Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\frac{1}{-1}\begin{bmatrix}2&-7\\ -1&3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}4\\ -1\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}\text{x}\\ \text{y}\end{bmatrix}=\frac{1}{-1}\begin{bmatrix}15\\ -7\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-15\\ 7\end{bmatrix}$
Hence, x = -15 y = 7
