Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

[2x+13y0y2−5y]=[x+3y2+20−6]\begin{bmatrix} 2x+1 & 3y \\ 0 & y^2-5y \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} x+3 & y^2+2 \\ 0 & -6 \end{bmatrix}

When two matrices are equal, their corresponding elements must be equal.

From position (1,1):

2x+1=x+32x + 1 = x + 3

x=2x = 2

From position (1,2):

3y=y2+23y = y^2 + 2

y2−3y+2=0y^2 - 3y + 2 = 0

(y−1)(y−2)=0(y-1)(y-2) = 0

y=1 or y=2y = 1 \text{ or } y = 2

From position (2,2):

y2−5y=−6y^2 - 5y = -6

y2−5y+6=0y^2 - 5y + 6 = 0

(y−2)(y−3)=0(y-2)(y-3) = 0

y=2 or y=3y = 2 \text{ or } y = 3

The common value from both equations is y=2y = 2.

(A) →\rightarrow x=2, y=2x = 2, \, y = 2 →\rightarrow (II)


[12−1x03y34]\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ x & 0 & 3 \\ y & 3 & 4 \end{bmatrix}

A symmetric matrix satisfies A=ATA = A^T, meaning element at position (i,j)(i,j) equals element at position (j,i)(j,i).

From (1,2) = (2,1): 2=x  ⟹  x=2\quad 2 = x \implies x = 2

From (1,3) = (3,1): −1=y  ⟹  y=−1\quad -1 = y \implies y = -1

From (2,3) = (3,2): 3=3\quad 3 = 3 ✓

(B) →\rightarrow x=2, y=−1x = 2, \, y = -1 →\rightarrow (I)


[x1][10−2−3][520y]=O[x \quad 1]\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ -2 & -3 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 5 & 2 \\ 0 & y \end{bmatrix} = O

[x1][10−2−3][x \quad 1]\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ -2 & -3 \end{bmatrix}

=[(x⋅1+1⋅(−2)),(x⋅0+1⋅(−3))]= [(x \cdot 1 + 1 \cdot (-2)), \quad (x \cdot 0 + 1 \cdot (-3))]

=[x−2,−3]= [x - 2, \quad -3]

[x−2−3][520y][x-2 \quad -3]\begin{bmatrix} 5 & 2 \\ 0 & y \end{bmatrix}

=[5(x−2)+0,2(x−2)+(−3y)]= [5(x-2) + 0, \quad 2(x-2) + (-3y)]

=[5(x−2),2(x−2)−3y]= [5(x-2), \quad 2(x-2) - 3y]

Setting each entry to 00:

5(x−2)=0  ⟹  x=25(x - 2) = 0 \implies x = 2

2(2−2)−3y=0  ⟹  −3y=0  ⟹  y=02(2 - 2) - 3y = 0 \implies -3y = 0 \implies y = 0

(C) →\rightarrow x=2, y=0x = 2, \, y = 0 →\rightarrow (IV)


[x011][x011]=[40−1y/2]\begin{bmatrix} x & 0 \\ 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} x & 0 \\ 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 4 & 0 \\ -1 & y/2 \end{bmatrix}

Computing the LHS:

[x⋅x+0⋅1x⋅0+0⋅11⋅x+1⋅11⋅0+1⋅1]=[x20x+11]\begin{bmatrix} x \cdot x + 0 \cdot 1 & x \cdot 0 + 0 \cdot 1 \\ 1 \cdot x + 1 \cdot 1 & 1 \cdot 0 + 1 \cdot 1 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} x^2 & 0 \\ x + 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}

Comparing corresponding elements:

From (1,1): x2=4  ⟹  x=2 or x=−2\quad x^2 = 4 \implies x = 2 \text{ or } x = -2

From (2,1): x+1=−1  ⟹  x=−2\quad x + 1 = -1 \implies x = -2

From (2,2): 1=y/2  ⟹  y=2\quad 1 = y/2 \implies y = 2

(D) →\rightarrow x=−2, y=2x = -2, \, y = 2 →\rightarrow (III)


List-IList-II
(A) x=2, y=2x = 2, \, y = 2(II)
(B) x=2, y=−1x = 2, \, y = -1(I)
(C) x=2, y=0x = 2, \, y = 0(IV)
(D) x=−2, y=2x = -2, \, y = 2(III)

Therefore, the correct answer is (A)-(II), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(III).
