Question 3.
Construct a 3 × 3 matrix whose elements are given by
(i) aij = |i – 2j|
Answer:
aij = |i – 2j|
The general 3 × 3 matrices is

a11 = |1 – 2(1)| = |1 – 2| = | – 1| = 1
a12 = |1 – 2(2)| = |1 – 4| = | – 3| = 3
a13 = |1 – 2(3)| = |1 – 6| = | – 5| = 5
a21 = |2 – 2(1)| = |2 – 2| = 0 = 0
a22 = |2 – 2(2)| = |2 – 4| = | – 2| = 2
a23 = |2 – 2(3)| = |2 – 6| = | – 4| = 4
a31 = |3 – 2(1)| = |3 – 2| = | 1 | = 1
a32 = |3 – 2(2)| = |3 – 4| = | – 1 | = 1
a33 = |3 – 2(3)| = |3 – 6| = | – 3 | = 3

(ii) aij = \(\frac{(i+j)^{3}}{3}\)
Answer:
a11 = \(\frac{(1+1)^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac{2^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac { 8 }{ 3 } \)
a12 = \(\frac{(1+2)^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac { 27 }{ 3 } \) = 9
a13 = \(\frac{(1+3)^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac { 64 }{ 3 } \) = \(\frac { 64 }{ 3 } \)
a21 = \(\frac{(2+1)^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac { 27 }{ 3 } \) = 9
a22 = \(\frac{(2+2)^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac { 64 }{ 3 } \) = \(\frac { 64 }{ 3 } \)
a23 = \(\frac{(2+3)^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac { 125 }{ 3 } \) = \(\frac { 125 }{ 3 } \)
a31 = \(\frac{(3+1)^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac { 64 }{ 3 } \) = \(\frac { 64 }{ 3 } \)
a32 = \(\frac{(3+2)^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac { 125 }{ 3 } \) = \(\frac { 125 }{ 3 } \)
a33 = \(\frac{(3+3)^{3}}{3}\) = \(\frac { 216 }{ 3 } \) = 72

Question 7.
Find the values of x, y and z from the following equations
(i)
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Maths Guide Chapter 3 Algebra Ex 3.16 16
Answer:
Since the given matrices are equal then all the corresponding elements are equal.
y = 12, z = 3, x = 3
The value of x = 3, y = 12 and z = 3

(ii)
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Maths Guide Chapter 3 Algebra Ex 3.16 17
Answer:
x + y = 6 ……(1)
5 + z = 5
z = 5 – 5 = 0
xy = 8
y = \(\frac { 8 }{ x } \)
Substitute the value of y = \(\frac { 8 }{ x } \) in (1)
x + \(\frac { 8 }{ x } \) = 6
x2 + 8 = 6x
x2 – 6x + 8 = 0
(x – 4) (x – 2) = 0
∴ x – 4 = 0 or x – 2 = 0
x = 4 or x = 2
y = \(\frac { 8 }{ 4 } \) = 2 or y = \(\frac { 8 }{ 2 } \) = 4
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Maths Guide Chapter 3 Algebra Ex 3.16 18
∴ The value of x, y and z are 4, 2, 0 (or) 2, 4, 0

(iii)
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Maths Guide Chapter 3 Algebra Ex 3.16 19
Solution:
x + y + z = 9 ……….(1)
x + z = 5 ……….(2)
y + z = 7 ……….(3)
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Maths Guide Chapter 3 Algebra Ex 3.16 20
Substitute the value of y = 4 in (3)
y + z = 7
4 + z = 7
z = 7 – 4
= 3
Substitute the value of z = 3 in (2)
x + 3 = 5
x = 5 – 3
= 2
∴ The value of x = 2 , y = 4 and z = 3
