Question 1.
Find the rank of each of the following matrices.
Solution:
(i) Let A = \(\left(\begin{array}{ll}
5 & 6 \\
7 & 8
\end{array}\right)\)
Order of A is 2 × 2.
ρ(A) ≤ 2
Consider the second order minor
\(\left|\begin{array}{ll}
5 & 6 \\
7 & 8
\end{array}\right|\) = 40 – 42 = -2 ≠ 0
There is a minor of order 2, which is not zero.
ρ(A) = 2
(ii) Let A = \(\left(\begin{array}{ll}
1 & -1 \\
3 & -6
\end{array}\right)\)
Order of A is 2 × 2
ρ(A) ≤ 2
Consider the second order minor
\(\left|\begin{array}{ll}
1 & -1 \\
3 & -6
\end{array}\right|\) = -6 + 3 = -3 ≠ 0
ρ(A) = 2
(iii) Let A = \(\left(\begin{array}{ll}
1 & 4 \\
2 & 8
\end{array}\right)\)
Since A is of order 2 × 2, ρ(A) ≤ 2
Now \(\left|\begin{array}{ll}
1 & 4 \\
2 & 8
\end{array}\right|\) = 8 – 8 = 0
Since second order minor vanishes ρ(A) ≠ 2
But first order minors, |1|, |4|, |2|, |8| are non zero.
ρ(A) = 1
(iv) Let A = \(\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
2 & -1 & 1 \\
3 & 1 & -5 \\
1 & 1 & 1
\end{array}\right)\)
Order of A is 3 × 3
ρ(A) ≤ 3
Consider the third order minor
\(\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
2 & -1 & 1 \\
3 & 1 & -5 \\
1 & 1 & 1
\end{array}\right|\)
= 2(1 + 5) + 1 (3 + 5) + 1(3 – 1)
= 2(6) + 8 + 2
= 22 ≠ 0
There is a minor of order 3, which is non zero.
ρ(A) = 3
(v) Let A = \(\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
-1 & 2 & -2 \\
4 & -3 & 4 \\
-2 & 4 & -4
\end{array}\right)\)
Since order of A is 3 × 3, ρ(A) ≤ 3
Now,
\(\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
-1 & 2 & -2 \\
4 & -3 & 4 \\
-2 & 4 & -4
\end{array}\right|\)
= -1(12 – 16) -2(-16 + 8) – 2(16 – 6)
= 4 + 16 – 20
= 0
Since the third order minor vanishes, ρ(A) ≠ 3
Consider \(\left|\begin{array}{cc}
-1 & 2 \\
4 & -3
\end{array}\right|\) = 3 – 8 = -5 ≠ 0
There is a minor order 2, which is not zero
ρ(A) = 2
(vi) Let A = \(\left(\begin{array}{cccc}
1 & 2 & -1 & 3 \\
2 & 4 & 1 & -2 \\
3 & 6 & 3 & -7
\end{array}\right)\)
Let us transform the matrix A to an echelon form by using elementary transformations.

2 & -3 & 4 \\
3 & -2 & 3
\end{array}\right)\) and B = \(\left(\begin{array}{ccc}

5x + 3y + 7 = 4
3x + 26y + 2z = 9
7x + 2y + 10z = 5
The matrix equation corresponding to the given system is

Question 5.
Show that the following system of equations have unique solution:
x + y + z = 3, x + 2y + 3z = 4, x + 4y + 9z = 6 by rank method.
Solution:
The given system of equations can be written in matrix equation,
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 1 Applications of Matrices and Determinants Ex 1.1 Q5
The last matrix is in echelon form. It has 3 non – zero rows,
ρ(A) = ρ([A, B]) = 3 = number of unknowns.
The given system is consistent and has a unique solution.
To find the solution, we write the echelon form into matrix form.
\(\left(\begin{array}{lll}
1 & 1 & 1 \\
0 & 1 & 2 \\
0 & 0 & 2
\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{l}
x \\
y \\
z
\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{l}
3 \\
1 \\
0
\end{array}\right)\)
x + y + z = 3 …… (1)
y + 2z = 1 …… (2)
2z = 0 …… (3)
(3) ⇒ z = 0
(2) ⇒ y = 1
(1) ⇒ x = 2
So the unique solution is x = 2, y = 1, z = 0

Question 6.
For what values of the parameter X, will the following equations fail to have unique solution: 3x – y + λz = 1, 2x + y + z = 2, x + 2y – λz = -1 by rank method.
Solution:
The given system can be written in matrix equation form as given below:
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 1 Applications of Matrices and Determinants Ex 1.1 Q6
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Business Maths Solutions Chapter 1 Applications of Matrices and Determinants Ex 1.1 Q6.1
λ = \(\frac{-7}{2}\)
So when λ = \(\frac{-7}{2}\), the equations fail to have unique solution.
Note: The system cannot have an infinite number of solutions, since ρ([A, B]) = 3 = a number of unknowns.

Question 7.

Mr.Amar purchases a unit of Y and sells 3 units of X and 2 units of Z. Mr. Amit purchases a unit of X and sells 3 units of Y and a unit of Z. In the process they earn ₹ 5,000/-, ₹2,000/- and ₹ 5,500/- respectively. Find the prices per unit of three commodities by rank method.

The above equivalent matrix is in echelon form with 3 non-zero rows.
So ρ(A) = ρ([A, B]) = 3 = number of unknowns.
the system has a unique solution.
The matrix equation is given by
\(\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
1 & 1 & 1 \\
0 & 1 & 2 \\
0 & 0 & -16
\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{l}
x \\
y \\
z
\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{c}
5000 \\
5800 \\
-28800
\end{array}\right)\)
x + y + z = 5000 …(1)
y + 2z = 5800 …(2)
-16z = -28800 …(3)
(3) ⇒ z = 1800
(2) ⇒ y = 5800 – 2(1800) = 2200
(1) ⇒ x = 5000 – 2200 – 1800 = 1000
The amount invested in the three bonds are ₹ 1000, ₹ 2200 and ₹ 1800.
