\({ \left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 1 \\ 1 & 2 \end{matrix} \right] }_{ 2\times 2 }{ \left[ \begin{matrix} x \\ y \end{matrix} \right] }_{ 2\times 1 }=\left[ \begin{matrix} 4 \\ 5 \end{matrix} \right] \)
By matrix multiplication \(\left[ \begin{matrix} 2x+y \\ x+2y \end{matrix} \right] =\left[ \begin{matrix} 4 \\ 5 \end{matrix} \right] \)
Rewriting 2x + y = 4 ....(1)
x + 2y = 5 ....(2)

Substituting y = 2 in (1), 2x + 2 = 4 gives x = 1
Therefore, x = 1, y = 2.
11.
We observe that A is a 2 x 2 matrix and B is a 2 x 2 matrix, hence AB is defined and it will be of the order 2 x 2.
AB = \(\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 1 \\ 1 & 3 \end{matrix} \right] \times \left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 0 \\ 1 & 3 \end{matrix} \right] =\left[ \begin{matrix} 4+1 & 0+3 \\ 2+3 & 0+9 \end{matrix} \right] =\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & 3 \\ 5 & 9 \end{matrix} \right] \)

x-3 =1 ⇒ x = 4
3x-z = 0
3(4)-z = 0
-z=-12 ⇒ z = 12
x + y + 7 = 1
x + y = -6
4 + y = -6
y = -10
x = 4, y = -10, z = 12

First, we add the two matrices on both left, right hand sides to get
\(\left[ \begin{matrix} d+3 & 8+a \\ 3b-2 & a-4 \end{matrix} \right] =\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 2a+1 \\ b-5 & 4c \end{matrix} \right] \)
Equating the corresponding elements of the two matrices, we have
d + 3 = 2 gives d = –1
8 + a = 2a + 1 gives a = 7
3b - 2 = b - 5 gives b = \(\frac {-3}{2}\)
Substituting a = 7 in a - 4 = 4c gives c = \(\frac {3}{4}\)
Therefore, a = 7, b = \(\frac {-3}{2}\), c = \(\frac {3}{4}\), d = -1.

Since A, B are of the same order 3 x 3, subtraction of 4A and 3B is defined.

The given matrices are equal. Thus all corresponding elements are equal.
Therefore, a - b = 1 …(1)
2a + c = 5 …(2)
2a - b = 0 …(3)
3c + d = 2 …(4)
(3) gives 2a - b = 0
2a = b …(5)
Put 2a = b in equation (1), a - 2a = 1 gives a = −1
Put a = −1 in equation (5), 2(-1) = b gives b = −2
Put a = −1 in equation (2), 2(-1) + c = 5 gives c = 7
Put c = 7 in equation (4), 3(7) + d = 2 gives d = −19
Therefore, a = −1, b = −2, c = 7, d = −19

a11 = 12 x 12 = 1 x 1 = 1; a12 = 12 x 22 = 1 x 4 = 4; a13 = 12 x 32 = 1 x 9 = 9
a21 = 22 x 12 = 2 x 1 = 2; a22 = 22 x 22 = 4 x 4 = 16; a23 = 22 x 32 = 4 x 9 = 36
a31 = 32 x 12 = 3 x 1 = 3; a32 = 32 x 22 = 9 x 4 = 36; a33 = 32 x 32 = 9 x 9 = 81
Hence the required matrix is A = \(\left( \begin{matrix} 1 & 4 & 9 \\ 4 & 16 & 36 \\ 9 & 36 & 81 \end{matrix} \right) \)

We know that a matrix of order m x n has mn elements. Thus to find all possible orders of a matrix with 16 elements, we will find all ordered pairs of natural numbers whose product is 16.
Such ordered pairs are (1, 16), (16, 1), (4,4), (8,2), (2,8)
Hence possible orders are 1 x 16, 16 x 1, 4 x 4, 2 x 8, 8 x 2
