Question 21: In a certain city there are 30 colleges. Each college has 15 peons, 6 clerks, 1 typist and 1 section officer. Express the given information as a column matrix. Using scalar multiplication, find the total number of posts of each kind of in all the colleges.

Solution:

Let the different posts in each college be represented as :\begin{bmatrix} 15 \\ 6\\ 1\\ 1 \end{bmatrix}

Now the total posts will be computed as follows:30\begin{bmatrix} 15 \\ 6\\ 1\\ 1 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 450 \\ 180\\ 30\\ 30 \end{bmatrix}

Question 22: The monthly incomes of Aryan and Babban are in the ratio 3 : 4 and their monthly expenditures are in the ratio 5 : 7. If each saves 15000 per month, find their monthly incomes using the matrix method.

Solution:

The problem can be solved by considering two matrices, one for expenditure and one for income.

=> The income matrix is: \begin{bmatrix} 3x \\ 4x\\ \end{bmatrix} where x is a constant.

=> The expenditure matrix is:\begin{bmatrix} 5y \\ 7y \end{bmatrix} where y is a constant.

=>\begin{bmatrix} 3x \\ 4x\\ \end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix} 5y \\ 7y \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 15000\\15000 \end{bmatrix}

We arrive at 2 equations from the above matrix equation.

=> 3x – 5y = 15000……..(eq.1)

=> 4x – 7y = 15000……..(eq.2)

Solving for y by 4(eq.1) – 3(eq.2),

=> 12x – 20y – 12x + 21y = 4(15000) – 3(15000)

=> y = 15000

Substitute the value of y in (eq.1),

=> 3x = 15000 + 5(15000)

=> 3x = 15000 + 75000

=> 3x = 90000

=> x = 30000

=> Their incomes and expenditures are,

=> 3x = 3(30000) = 90000 and 5y = 5(15000) = 75000

=> 4x = 4(30000) = 120000 and 7y = 7(15000) = 105000
