Options

  1. A22
  2. B11
  3. C33
  4. D99

Correct answer

C. 33

Step-by-step solution

Given A = \left[\begin{cases}{a}_{11} & {a}_{12} & {a}_{13} \\ {a}_{21} & {a}_{22} & {a}_{23} \\ {a}_{31} & {a}_{32} & {a}_{33}\end{cases}\right]

Let, X = \left[111\begin{array}{ll}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{array}\right]

Then, we have AX = \left[\begin{cases}{a}_{11} & {a}_{12} & {a}_{13} \\ {a}_{21} & {a}_{22} & {a}_{23} \\ {a}_{31} & {a}_{32} & {a}_{33}\end{cases}\right]\left[111\begin{array}{ll}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{array}\right]

⇒ \left[a11+a12+a13a21+a22+a23a31+a32+a33\begin{array}{ll}{a}_{11} + {a}_{12} + {a}_{13} \\ {a}_{21} + {a}_{22} + {a}_{23} \\ {a}_{31} + {a}_{32} + {a}_{33}\end{array}\right]

Given, ai1+ai2+ai3=1,{a}_{i1} + {a}_{i2} + {a}_{i3} = 1, for i=1,2,3i = 1, 2, 3

⇒ \left[a11+a12+a13a21+a22+a23a31+a32+a33\begin{array}{ll}{a}_{11} + {a}_{12} + {a}_{13} \\ {a}_{21} + {a}_{22} + {a}_{23} \\ {a}_{31} + {a}_{32} + {a}_{33}\end{array}\right] = \left[111\begin{array}{ll}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{array}\right]

⇒AX=X...(i)⇒ AX = X . . . \left(i\right)

Pre multiply by A,A, we get

A2X=AX...(ii){A}^{2}X = AX . . . \left(ii\right)

From \left(i\right) \text{ and } \left(ii\right),wegetwe get{A}^{2}X = X</p><p>Again,premultiplyby</p><p>Again, pre multiply byA,weget</p><p>we get</p><p>{A}^{3}X = AX . . . \left(iii\right)</p><p>From(i) and (iii),</p><p>From \left(i\right) \text{ and } \left(iii\right), we get A3X=X{A}^{3}X = X

Let {A}^{3} = \left[\begin{cases}{x}_{1} & {x}_{2} & {x}_{3} \\ {y}_{1} & {y}_{2} & {y}_{3} \\ {z}_{1} & {z}_{2} & {z}_{3}\end{cases}\right]

⇒ {A}^{3}\left[111\begin{array}{ll}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{array}\right] = \left[x1+x2+x3y1+y2+y3z1+z2+z3\begin{array}{ll}{x}_{1} + {x}_{2} + {x}_{3} \\ {y}_{1} + {y}_{2} + {y}_{3} \\ {z}_{1} + {z}_{2} + {z}_{3}\end{array}\right] = \left[111\begin{array}{ll}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{array}\right]

⇒x1+x2+x3=1,y1+y2+y3=1 and z1+z2+z3=1⇒ {x}_{1} + {x}_{2} + {x}_{3} = 1, {y}_{1} + {y}_{2} + {y}_{3} = 1 \text{ and } {z}_{1} + {z}_{2} + {z}_{3} = 1

⇒x1+x2+x3+y1+y2+y3+z1+z2+z3=3.⇒ {x}_{1} + {x}_{2} + {x}_{3} + {y}_{1} + {y}_{2} + {y}_{3} + {z}_{1} + {z}_{2} + {z}_{3} = 3 .

Thus, the sum of all the elements is=3.= 3 .
