Question

If \[A = \begin{bmatrix}a & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & a & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & a\end{bmatrix}\] , then the value of |adj A| is _____________ .

Options

  • a27

  • a9

  • a6

  • a2

MCQ

Solution

a6

\[A = \begin{bmatrix} a & 0 & 0\\0 & a & 0\\0 & 0 & a \end{bmatrix}\]

\[ \therefore \left| A \right| = \begin{bmatrix} a & 0 & 0\\0 & a & 0\\0 & 0 & a \end{bmatrix} = a^3 \neq 0\]

and

\[n = 3\]

Thus, we have

\[\left| adj A \right| = \left| A \right|^{n - 1} = \left( a^3 \right)^2 = a^6 \]

  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:

  1. Express the data given in the table above in the form of a set of simultaneous equations.
