Question

Without expanding, show that the value of the following determinant is zero:

\[\begin{vmatrix}a + b & 2a + b & 3a + b \\ 2a + b & 3a + b & 4a + b \\ 4a + b & 5a + b & 6a + b\end{vmatrix}\]

Solution

\[ ∆ = \begin{vmatrix}a + b & 2a + b & 3a + b \\ 2a + b & 3a + b & 4a + b \\ 4a + b & 5a + b & 6a + b\end{vmatrix}\]
\[ = \begin{vmatrix}a & a & a \\ 2a & 2a & 2a \\ 4a + b & 5a + b & 6a + b\end{vmatrix} \left[ \text{ Applying } R_1 \to R_2 - R_1  \text{ and }  R_2 \to R_3 - R_2 \right]\]
\[ = 2\begin{vmatrix}a & a & a \\ a & a & a \\ 4a + b & 5a + b & 6a + b\end{vmatrix} = 0\]

The prices of three commodities P, Q and R are Rs x, y and z per unit respectively. A purchases 4 units of R and sells 3 units of P and 5 units of Q. B purchases 3 units of Q and sells 2 units of P and 1 unit of R. Cpurchases 1 unit of P and sells 4 units of Q and 6 units of R. In the process A, B and C earn Rs 6000, Rs 5000 and Rs 13000 respectively. If selling the units is positive earning and buying the units is negative earnings, find the price per unit of three commodities by using matrix method.

 

A school wants to award its students for the values of Honesty, Regularity and Hard work with a total cash award of Rs 6,000. Three times the award money for Hard work added to that given for honesty amounts to Rs 11,000. The award money given for Honesty and Hard work together is double the one given for Regularity. Represent the above situation algebraically and find the award money for each value, using matrix method. Apart from these values, namely, Honesty, Regularity and Hard work, suggest one more value which the school must include for awards.


Two schools A and B want to award their selected students on the values of sincerity, truthfulness and helpfulness.

If the total amount of award for one prize on each value is ₹900, using matrices, find the award money for each value. Apart from these three values, suggest one more value which should be considered for award.
