Class 12 Maths · Matrices · Short Answer #90

For A=\(\begin{bmatrix}0 & 2\\3 & -4\end{bmatrix}\) and kA=\(\begin{bmatrix}0 & 3a\\2b & 24\end{bmatrix}\), find k,a,b.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: k=−6,a=−4,b=−9
  1. By corresponding-entry equality, −4k=24, 2k=3a and 3k=2b.
  2. Solve successively: k=−6, a=2(−6)/3=−4, b=3(−6)/2=−9.
  3. Thus (k,a,b)=(−6,−4,−9).

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] By corresponding-entry equality, −4k=24, 2k=3a and 3k=2b.
  • [1 mark] Solve successively: k=−6, a=2(−6)/3=−4, b=3(−6)/2=−9.
  • [0.5 marks] Thus (k,a,b)=(−6,−4,−9).
