Step 1: Definition of a scalar matrix
A scalar matrix is a diagonal matrix where all diagonal elements are equal.
This means \( a = d = 5 \), and all off-diagonal elements (\( b \), \( c \)) are zero.
Step 2: Substitute the values
Using the scalar matrix properties:
\[
a + 2b + 3c + 4d = 5 + 2(0) + 3(0) + 4(5) = 5 + 0 + 0 + 20 = 25.
\]
Step 3: Verify the options
The correct value is \( 25 \), which corresponds to option (D).
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.
