The given matrices are: \[ \begin{bmatrix} x + y & 2 \\ 5 & xy \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 6 & 2 \\ 5 & 8 \end{bmatrix}. \]
1. Equating Corresponding Elements: - From the first row, first column: \[ x + y = 6. \] - From the second row, second column: \[ xy = 8. \]
2. Expression to Evaluate: We need to find: \[ \frac{24}{x} + \frac{24}{y}. \]
Simplify the expression using the identity \( \frac{a}{x} + \frac{a}{y} = a \cdot \frac{x + y}{xy} \): \[ \frac{24}{x} + \frac{24}{y} = 24 \cdot \frac{x + y}{xy}. \]
3. Substitute Known Values: - \( x + y = 6 \), - \( xy = 8 \). Substitute these values: \[ \frac{24}{x} + \frac{24}{y} = 24 \cdot \frac{6}{8}. \]
Simplify: \[ \frac{24}{x} + \frac{24}{y} = 24 \cdot \frac{3}{4} = 18. \]
Hence, the value of \( \frac{24}{x} + \frac{24}{y} \) is (D) 18.
Determine whether each of the following relations are reflexive, symmetric, and transitive.
Show that the relation R in the set R of real numbers, defined as
R = {(a, b): a ≤ b2 } is neither reflexive nor symmetric nor transitive.
Check whether the relation R defined in the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} as
R = {(a, b): b = a + 1} is reflexive, symmetric or transitive.
Assertion (A): A line in space cannot be drawn perpendicular to \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \) axes simultaneously.
Reason (R): For any line making angles \( \alpha, \beta, \gamma \) with the positive directions of \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \) axes respectively, \[ \cos^2\alpha + \cos^2\beta + \cos^2\gamma = 1. \]
