Question

Solve the following equations by the reduction method.

2x + y = 5, 3x + 5y = – 3

Sum

Solution

The given equations can be written in the matrix form as:

`[(2,1),(3,5)][("x"),("y")]=[(5),(-3)]`

By 2R2 , we get,

`[(2,1),(6,10)][("x"),("y")]=[(5),(-6)]`

By R2 – 3R1, we get,

`[(2,1),(0,7)][("x"),("y")]=[(5),(-21)]`

∴ `[(2"x"+"y"),(0+7"y")]=[(5),(-21)]`

By equality of matrices,

2x + y = 5  ........(1)

7y = − 21  ........(2)

From (2), y = − 3

Substituting y = − 3 in (1), we get,

2x − 3 = 5

∴ 2x = 8

∴ x = 4

Hence, x = 4, y = − 3 is the required solution.

Complete the following activity.

The cost of 4 kg potato, 3kg wheat and 2kg rice is ₹ 60. The cost of 1 kg potato, 2 kg wheat and 3kg rice is ₹ 45. The cost of 6 kg potato, 3 kg rice and 2 kg wheat is ₹ 70. Find the per kg cost of each item by matrix method.

Therefore by given conditions,

4x + ( )y + 2( ) = ( )

x + 2y + ( )( ) = ( )

( )x + 2y + 3z = ( )

Matrix form of above equations is,

`[("( )", 3, "( )"),(1, "( )", 3),("( )", 2, "( )")] [(x),(y),(z)] =[("( )"), (45), ("( )")]`

R1 ↔ R2

`[(1, 2, 3),("( )", "( )", "( )"),(6, 2, 3)] [(x),(y),(z)] =[("( )"), (60), ("( )")]`

R2 – 4R1, R3 – 6R1

`[(1, 2, 3),("( )", -5, "( )"),(0, "( )", -15)] [(x),(y),(z)] =[(45), ("( )"), (-200)]`

`(-1)/5 "R"_2, (-1)/5 "R"_3`

`[("( )", 2, 3),(0, "( )", 2),(0, 2, "( )")] [(x),("( )"),(z)] =[(45), (24), (40)]`

R3 – 2R2

`[(1, 2, 3),(0, 1, 2),(0, 0, -1)] [(x),(y),(z)] =[("( )"), ("( )"), ("( )")]`

By pre multiplying we get,

x + 2y + ( )z = ( )    .....(i)

y + 2z = 24    ......(ii)

–z = ( )      ......(iii)

From (iii), we get, z = ( )

From (ii), we get, y = ( )

From (i), we get, x = ( )

Therefore the cost of Potato, Wheat and Rice per kg are _______, _______ and _______ respectively.
