Class 12 Maths · Matrices · Short Answer #94

For A=\(\begin{bmatrix}2 & 4\\3 & 2\end{bmatrix}\) and B=\(\begin{bmatrix}-2 & 5\\3 & 4\end{bmatrix}\), find 3A−B.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(\begin{bmatrix}8 & 7\\6 & 2\end{bmatrix}\)
  1. First 3A=[[6,12],[9,6]].
  2. Subtract B entrywise: [[6−(−2),12−5],[9−3,6−4]]=[[8,7],[6,2]].
  3. Therefore 3A−B=\(\begin{bmatrix}8 & 7\\6 & 2\end{bmatrix}\).

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] First 3A=[[6,12],[9,6]].
  • [1 mark] Subtract B entrywise: [[6−(−2),12−5],[9−3,6−4]]=[[8,7],[6,2]].
  • [0.5 marks] Therefore 3A−B=\(\begin{bmatrix}8 & 7\\6 & 2\end{bmatrix}\).
