56. If R=

If then top row of R-1 is

then top row of R-1 is

  • Option : B
  • Explanation : Linear Algebra

    Since, I R I = 1, therefore top row  [5  -3  1]

58. For which value of x, will the matrix 

For which value of x, will the matrix

become singular

  • Option : A
  • Explanation : For singular matrix,

    Linear Algebra

     8 [0 - 12] - x [0 - 2x12] = 0

     -96 + 24x = 0

     x = 4

59. Rank of the matrix, 

Rank of the matrix,

  • Option : B
  • Explanation : Since, 

    Linear Algebra

    = 12 - 24 + 12 = 0

    and Mn = 12 = 0.

    Hence rank is 2.

60. Eigen vectors of the matrix

Eigen vectors of the matrix

is (are)

  • Option : D
  • Explanation : Eigen value are roots of the equation

    Linear Algebra

    i.e. (1 - a)2 - 1 = 0

     a2 - 2a = 0

     a = 0  or a = 2

    when a = 0

    Linear Algebra

    this gives x = y

    when a = 2,

    Linear Algebra

    This gives x = -y

    Hence, eigen vectors corresponding to 0 and 2 are 

       Linear Algebra
