Question

Examine the consistency of the system of equations.

x + y + z = 1

2x + 3y + 2z = 2

ax + ay + 2az = 4

Solution

Let, A = `[(1,1,1),(2,3,2),(a,a,2a)]`, X = `[(x),(y),(z)]`, B = `[(1),(2),(4)]`

|A| = `|(1,1,1),(2,3,2),(a,a,2a)|`

= 1 × (3 × 2a − a × 2) − 1 × (2 × 2a − a × 2) + 1 × (2 × a − a × 3)

= 4a − 2a − a

= a ≠ 0

Hence, the system of equations is consistent.

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.
