On her birthday Seema decided to donate some money to children of an orphanage home. If there were 8 children less, everyone would have got ₹ 10 more. However, if there were 16 children more, everyone would have got ₹ 10 less. Using the matrix method, find the number of children and the amount distributed by Seema. What values are reflected by Seema’s decision?

उत्तर

Let the number of children be x and the amount distributed by Seema for one child be ₹y.

So, (x − 8)(y + 10) = xy
⇒  5x − 4y = 40         ...(i) 

and 
(x + 16) (y − 10) = xy

⇒ 5x − 8y = −80        ...(ii) 

To solve (i) and (ii),

let A = `((5,4),(5,-8)), "B" = ((40),(-80)), "X" = (("x"),("y"))`     

∵ `"AX" = "B" ⇒  "X" = "A"^-1 "B"`

Now `"A"^-1`

`"A^-1 = - 1/20 ((-8,4),(-5, 5))`

⇒ `(("x"),("y")) = ((32),(30))`

Clearly x = 32, y = 30.

Hence the number of children = 32 and the amount distributed by Seema = ₹30.

Value reflected: Helpfulness towards the needy people.

The management committee of a residential colony decided to award some of its members (say x) for honesty, some (say y) for helping others and some others (say z) for supervising the workers to keep the colony neat and clean. The sum of all the awardees is 12. Three times the sum of awardees for cooperation and supervision added to two times the number of awardees for honesty is 33. If the sum of the number of awardees for honesty and supervision is twice the number of awardees for helping others, using matrix method, find the number of awardees of each category. Apart from these values, namely, honesty, cooperation and supervision, suggest one more value which the management of the colony must include for awards.
