Solution
\[\begin{vmatrix}2 & 3 & 4 \\ 5 & 6 & 8 \\ 6x & 9x & 12x\end{vmatrix}\]
\[ = \begin{vmatrix}2 & 3 & 4 \\ 5 & 6 & 8 \\ 2 & 3 & 4\end{vmatrix} \left[\text{ Taking 3x common from }R_3 \right]\]
\[ = 0 \left[ \because R_1\text{ and }R_3\text{ are identical }\right]\]

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.

Two schools A and B want to award their selected students on the values of sincerity, truthfulness and helpfulness. The school A wants to award ₹x each, ₹y each and ₹z each for the three respective values to 3, 2 and 1 students respectively with a total award money of ₹1,600. School B wants to spend ₹2,300 to award its 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 ₹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.
