Question

For each of the following matrices, find its transpose and state whether it is symmetric, skew-symmetric, or neither.

`[(2, 5, 1),(-5, 4, 6),(-1, -6, 3)]`

Sum

Solution

Let A = `[(2, 5, 1),(-5, 4, 6),(-1, -6, 3)]`

∴ AT = `[(2, -5, -1),(5, 4, -6),(1, 6, 3)]`

∴ –AT = `[(-2, 5, 1),(-5, -4, 6),(-1, -6, -3)]`

∵ A ≠ AT and A ≠ –AT

∴ A is neither a symmetric nor a skew-symmetric matrix.

A computers centre has four expert programmers . The centre needs four application programmes to be developed. The head of the computer centre , after stying carefully the programmes to be developed , estimates the computer time in minutes required by the respective experts to develop the application programmes as follows :

  Programmes
Programmes 1 2 3 4
  (Times in minutes)
A 120 100 80 90
B 80 90 110 70
C 110 140 120 100
D 90 90 80 90

How should the head of the computer centre assign the programmes to the programmers so that the total time required is minimum ?
