Question 1.
Solve the following system of linear equations by matrix inversion method:
(i) 2x + 5y = -2, x + 2y = -3
(ii) 2x – y = 8, 3x + 2y = -2
(iii) 2x + 3y – z = 9, x + y + z = 9, 3x – y – z = -1
(iv) x + y + z – 2 = 0, 6x – 4y + 5z – 31 = 0, 5x + 2y + 2z = 13
Solution:
(i) 2x + 5y = -2, x + 2y = -3
The matrix form of the above equations is $$\left(\begin{array}{ll}{2} & {5} \\ {1} & {2}\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{l}{x} \\ {y}\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{l}{-2} \\ {-3}\end{array}\right)$$
(i.e) AX = B

Question 2.
If A = $$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}{-5} & {1} & {3} \\ {7} & {1} & {-5} \\ {1} & {-1} & {1}\end{array}\right]$$ and B = $$\left[\begin{array}{lll}{1} & {1} & {2} \\ {3} & {2} & {1} \\ {2} & {1} & {3}\end{array}\right]$$ find the products AB and BA and hence solve the system of equations x + y + 2z = 1, 3x + 2y + z = 7, 2x + y + 3z = 2.
Solution:

Question 3.
A man is appointed in a job with a monthly salary of certain amount and a fixed amount of annual increment. If his salary was ₹ 19,800 per month at the end of the first month after 3 years of service and ₹ 23,400 per month at the end of the first month after 9 years of service, find his starting salary and his annual increment. (Use matrix inversion method to solve the problem.)
Solution:
Let his monthly salary be ₹ x and his annual increment be ₹ y
Given x + 3y = 19800 and x + 9y = 23400
Writing the above equations in matrix form, we get

x = ₹ 18000 and y = ₹ 600
(i.e) monthly salary = ₹ 18000 and annual increment = ₹ 600

Question 4.
4 men and 4 women can finish a piece of work jointly in 3 days while 2 men and 5 women can finish the same work jointly in 4 days. Find the time taken by one man alone and that of one woman alone to finish the same work by using matrix inversion method.
Solution:
Let the work done by man in 1 day be x and the work done by a woman in 1 day be y
Now we are given
4x + 4y = $$\frac { 1 }{ 3 }$$ ⇒ 12x + 12y = 1
and 2x + 5y = $$\frac { 1 }{ 4 }$$ ⇒ 8x + 20y = 1
The matrix form of the above equations is $$\left(\begin{array}{cc}{12} & {12} \\ {8} & {20}\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{l}{x} \\ {y}\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{l}{1} \\ {1}\end{array}\right)$$
(i.e) AX = B ⇒ X = A-1B
Here

(i.e) The work done by a man in 1 day = x = $$\frac{1}{18}$$
The time taken by a man to finish the work = 18 days.
The work done by a woman in 1 day = y = $$\frac{1}{36}$$
The time is taken by a woman to finish the work = 36 days.

Question 5.
The prices of three commodities A, B and C are ₹ x, y and z per units respectively. A person P purchases 4 units of B and sells two units of A and 5 units of C. Person Q purchases 2 units of C and sells 3 units of A and one unit of B . Person R purchases one unit of A and sells 3 unit of B and one unit of C. In the process, P, Q and R earn ₹ 15,000, ₹ 1,000 and ₹ 4,000 respectively. Find the prices per unit of A,B and C. (Use matrix inversion method to solve the problem.)
Solution:
Price of A = ₹ x /unit
Price of B = ₹ y /unit
Price of C = ₹ z /unit
We are given
2x – 4y + 5z = 15000
3x + y – 2z = 1000
-x + 3y + z = 4000
The matrix form of the above equations is $$\left(\begin{array}{rrr}{2} & {-4} & {5} \\ {3} & {1} & {-2} \\ {-1} & {3} & {1}\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{l}{x} \\ {y} \\ {z}\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{r}{15000} \\ {1000} \\ {4000}\end{array}\right)$$
(i.e) AX = B ⇒ X = A-1B

Question 1.
Using matrix method, solve the following system of equations:
x + 2y + z = 7, x + 3z = 11, 2x – 3y = 1
Solution:
The system of equations can be written in the form AX = B, where

= 9 + 12 – 3 = 18 ≠ 0 Non-singular matrix.
A11 = (0 + 9) = 9, A12 = -(0 – 6) = 6,
A13 = (-3 – 0) = -3
A21 = – (0 + 3) = -3, A22 = (0 – 2) = -2
A23 = -(-3 – 4) = 7
A31 = (6 – 0) = 6, A32 = -(-3 – 1) = -2,
A33 = (0 – 2) = -2

Thus x = 2 ,y = 1 and z = 3.

C21 = -(5 – 4) = 9
C31 = +(5 – 4) = 1
C12 = +(-15 – 15) = -30
