Solution
If A is a singular matrix, then adj A is singular.
\[\text{ A is singular, so } \left| A \right| = 0\].
By definition, we have
A \[adj \left( A \right) = O \]
\[ \Rightarrow \left| A adj \left( A \right) \right| = \left| O \right|\]
\[ \Rightarrow \left| A \right| \left| adj \left( A \right) \right| = 0 \]
\[ \Rightarrow \left| adj \left( A \right) \right| = 0 \]
\[\text{ Hence, }adj \left( A \right)\text{ is singular}\].

Two schools A and B want to award their selected students on the values of sincerity, truthfulness and helpfulness. School A wants to award Rs x each, Rs y each and Rs z each for the three respective values to 3, 2 and 1 students, respectively with a total award money of Rs 1,600. School B wants to spend Rs 2,300 to award 4, 1 and 3 students on the respective values (by giving the same award money to the three values as before). If the total amount of award for one prize on each value is Rs 900, using matrices, find the award money for each value. Apart from these three values, suggest one more value which should be considered for an award.

A furniture factory uses three types of wood namely, teakwood, rosewood and satinwood for manufacturing three types of furniture, that are, table, chair and cot.
The wood requirements (in tonnes) for each type of furniture are given below:
| Table | Chair | Cot | |
| Teakwood | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| Rosewood | 1 | 1 | 2 |
| Satinwood | 3 | 2 | 1 |
It is found that 29 tonnes of teakwood, 13 tonnes of rosewood and 16 tonnes of satinwood are available to make all three types of furniture.
Using the above information, answer the following questions:
- Express the data given in the table above in the form of a set of simultaneous equations.
- Solve the set of simultaneous equations formed in subpart (i) by matrix method.
- Hence, find the number of table(s), chair(s) and cot(s) produced.
