1/18/23, 5:15 PM Test Generator

Ans : (a) Since matrices A and B are equal so the corresponding matrix elements will be
equal.

So equating 3rd row and 2nd column element of both matrices to get value of ‘a’.

⇒ a = 1 + 2a

a = –1

Similarly equating 3rd row and 3rd column element we get,

b=2

and equating 2nd row and 3rd column element, we get

c = 3c + 2

c = –1

(b) Since values of a, b and c are –1, 2, –1 respectively.

So, 2 × (–1) + 8(–1) + 6(2) = –2 – 8 + 12 = 2

(c) For values of x, equating 1st row and 1st column of both the matrices, we get

2+x=8

⇒ x=6

Similarly equating 2nd row 2nd column, we get y as

8+y=6

y = –3

So, equating Ist row and 2nd column, we get z as

z+6=6

z=0

(d) As we know that value of x and y is 6 and –3

So, 7 × (6) + 2(–3) = 42 + (–6) = 36

(e) As a = –1 x=6

b=2 and y = –3

c = –1 z=0

Substituting these values, we get

–1 + 2(2) + 3(–1) + 4(6) + 5(–3) + 6(0) = 9
