Class 12 Maths · Matrices · Short Answer #89

Find A such that 2A−3B+5C=O, where B=\(\begin{bmatrix}-2 & 2 & 0\\3 & 1 & 4\end{bmatrix}\) and C=\(\begin{bmatrix}2 & 0 & -2\\7 & 1 & 6\end{bmatrix}\).

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(\begin{bmatrix}-8 & 3 & 5\\-13 & -1 & -9\end{bmatrix}\)
  1. Rearrange to A=(3B−5C)/2.
  2. Compute 3B=\(\begin{bmatrix}-6 & 6 & 0\\9 & 3 & 12\end{bmatrix}\) and 5C=\(\begin{bmatrix}10 & 0 & -10\\35 & 5 & 30\end{bmatrix}\). Subtract and divide each entry by 2.
  3. Therefore A=\(\begin{bmatrix}-8 & 3 & 5\\-13 & -1 & -9\end{bmatrix}\).

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] Rearrange to A=(3B−5C)/2.
  • [1 mark] Compute 3B=\(\begin{bmatrix}-6 & 6 & 0\\9 & 3 & 12\end{bmatrix}\) and 5C=\(\begin{bmatrix}10 & 0 & -10\\35 & 5 & 30\end{bmatrix}\). Subtract and divide each entry by 2.
  • [0.5 marks] Therefore A=\(\begin{bmatrix}-8 & 3 & 5\\-13 & -1 & -9\end{bmatrix}\).
