Let MM be a 3×33 \times 3 matrix such that M(100)=(123)M \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 2 \\ 3 \end{pmatrix}, M(010)=(012)M \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 1 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 1 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix} and M(001)=(−111)M \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} -1 \\ 1 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}. If M(xyz)=(1711)M \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 7 \\ 11 \end{pmatrix}, then x+y+zx + y + z equals :

  4. D1111

Correct answer

B. 55

Step-by-step solution

Let MM be the matrix whose columns are the given vectors. We have:

M=(10−1211321)M = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & -1 \\ 2 & 1 & 1 \\ 3 & 2 & 1 \end{pmatrix}

Given M(xyz)=(1711)M \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 7 \\ 11 \end{pmatrix}, we can write this as a system of linear equations:

x−z=1x - z = 1

2x+y+z=72x + y + z = 7

3x+2y+z=113x + 2y + z = 11

Subtracting the second equation from the third equation gives:

x+y=4x + y = 4

Adding the first equation and the second equation gives:

3x+y=83x + y = 8

Subtracting the equation x+y=4x + y = 4 from 3x+y=83x + y = 8 gives:

2x=4⇒x=22x = 4 \Rightarrow x = 2

Substituting x=2x = 2 into x+y=4x + y = 4 gives:

2+y=4⇒y=22 + y = 4 \Rightarrow y = 2

Substituting x=2x = 2 into x−z=1x - z = 1 gives:

2−z=1⇒z=12 - z = 1 \Rightarrow z = 1

Therefore, x+y+z=2+2+1=5x + y + z = 2 + 2 + 1 = 5.
